Long Travel BS Thread

You think 80 would be a min?

 

I don't know an exact #, but I would do something close to that. you need some pressure pushing back against the ifp in the reservoir so you don't damage the internals

 

Exactly just something putting pressure on it. I cant really call FOA right now lol.

I've pretty much written these shocks off anyway, until bypasses come into the budget.

 

well here i guess ill just say this, and this is why i think i can do it so easily.

my dad works 40 hrs a week at 20/hr, used to support me, his wife (stay at home) and her 2 step kids every other week. (she gained un employment so it did help)
his house is more expensive than mine would be, he has a boat payment and a truck payment. and he goes out every weekend.

he works every night in the garage but he makes it bye.

now i make more money than my dad does..(i got lucky) so me by myself or with my girlfriend and no major payments i should be good... especially with a room mate
right?

i heard if you dont run any in them it can damage the insides

 

I have a similar question. Say I slap my front end together can I charge the shock with shop air till I can get across town to my nitro guy?

Snapped the ball joint

I don't worry about getting my shit jacked the messsicans don't even understand why I have a skid plate lol

 

That would be fine, just don't do it that often, the moisture in shop air can lead to rust, try to use shop air that has a good filter on it if you can

 

Awesome yeah I plan on running a couple filters.

 

scary, my dads rhino used those

 

Snap diddy snap snap

 

anyone have the KMZ file for the Balls Out 250? Im trying to plan a meet to watch the race and want to avoid the race track while getting there.

 

Why the fuck isn't your truck done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Jeremy how did the sua kit ride and perform with out big shocks and bed cage etc...

 

It did "alright" with stock loc 5100's. The travel that it had pretty much bottomed out on the stock bedside and shock at the same time. So if you can picture that gap that was my travel.

Its a whole new truck now being able to actually move the leaf pack freely lol. I thought it ran pretty smooth through sycamores whoops, dips, and dives.

Ask Eric he was in the truck, along with two others....

EDIT: Patrick, I think you just need to ride in it to make your decision

 

My rent is fairly cheap for what I have. I'm pretty good about getting by with what I have versus what I need when it comes to a place to live.
Wish it was like that when it came to trucks

Can't argue that, our school systems suck for many reasons, but I thought it was a CA thing, guess not.
I do agree that Pasadena/La Canada has a lot of history, but damn its boring. My Grandmother In-law(is that a word) live in La Canada and I cant be there for more than a day or so without getting bored and wanting to head back to Orange County. Maybe were not looking in the right places though.

Pretty much what I was going to say

But when you retire you're going to be to old to really do anything. I'm probably older than most on here and I can tell you I'd much rather waste $ no when I can enjoy life than save it for later when I'm old and decrepit. Hell I may not even make it to old, so whats the point in being responsible

How much is the entire upright? I don't see a price on their site

I haven't spent much time in SLO, but my brother has a few friends that have some of the nicest mansion's you can image(from the pics I've seen), so going off that I'd say SLO is a nice place to live

 

Oh I agree, Im just saying thats when you end up getting all of the extra time, when your too old to use it

The solo spindles are $1200 without the uniball conversion portion

 

andrew, you're not that far away... you should come up my way sometime. lots off cool stuff to go explore back in the mountains here

 

the expos are stiff as fuck haha

Fuck the pogo stick!!!!

 

because im bad at watching my spending and i spend alot on camping (beer) like everytime we go on a decent camping trip i spend 100 bucks on drinks.. i like my jager lol.

it was pretty smooth, it didnt jar at all like my truck did, but it also hopped quite a bit compaired to what im used too. but your pack is pretty new so it will soften up. and its expected to hop since you have no weight back there. my truck doesnt hop unless im going through fat ass whoops because i have like 300 lbs hanging off the back of my truck
