Long Travel BS Thread

SAW 2.0x4" and Fox 2.0x2".

Cheapest Kings we found were $350 a pair w/o cans

 

Damn, I really didn't see much of a deal

 

mikes truck

 

That was posted like 2 pages ago haha

 

damn it thats what i get for sleeping in lol

 

Do both and bring me along so I can enjoy it!!

 

Damn maybe I should wait on buying tires. when is there another swap meet? anytime before the mojave run?

 

Usually only one a year!

 

damn my job, I dont think ill ever be home for one and if im scheduled im sure they'll figure out someway to get me out of cali for the time being. best deal I can find is 6 MT baja claw TTC for $2011 wouldnt mind getting used ones for under 200

 

F67 and 50T w/ the bottom 2 leafs taken out

 

unless both packs are new kinda not 100% fair to compare them like that.


On another note your truck looks good matt.

 

you're right, it's not a 100% fair... but the ride quality difference between the 2 is unreal. it's nice to be able to see my frame in the rear wheel wells again

 

Kickin it w dezert guy

 

haha i thought that was u pushing tiers good deal!


i came up on some deavers for 400 and my buddy got some fox 2.5x16 3 tube bypasses for 800. heres a pic of what i have so fare for my rear lt gettin there, calls to tc monday!

 

Wow that looks bitchin man!

 

Nothing like shoving 6 big ass tires in the bed

 

been searching like a mofo but not coming up with a whole lot...

anybody know of a performance steering rack replacement for 1st gen 6 lug trucks? i keep reading about a lot of people running a Howe rack, but there's no deatils on it. going to call up Howe this week but in the meantime any links with info and reading material would be awesome.

 

Rear suspension done. Next up front and rear bumper/tire carrier

 

Convert over to a toyota steering box with a swing steer setup

Hard to tell in the picture but it looks like the shocks are completely vertical. Don't know what suspension setup you are running but it mostly wont cycle correctly. Most likely bottom out the shock before the springs bottom out. But it may work for your truck. I made that mistake of completely vertical shocks. Usually may result in breaking something mostly a shock.

 

They are 18" shocks and I cycled them with arcs to find the spot. I gave them about 1/2" and each side of the travel so they arent quite straight up. Thanks for the heads up though
