Long Travel BS Thread

stock travels like 11.2" hahaha

 

Yeah something like that.. Site I just looked at said 11.1 in the front and like 13.4 in the back

 

This right here....read it, then read it again

 

And then read it some more..

 

And THEN... take your taco and trade it in for a diesel, buy a trailer, go to a junkyard, find a cab & chassis, tow it home, put it on jack stands and start building.

 

I bet you can pickup a steel cab and chassis for less then a fiberglass cab.

 

Why?

 

I bet once you gut all the extra metal from a cab the weight is about the same. Plus even if there is much of a weight difference are you really worried about 100 pounds on a 4-5k pound truck?

 

Don't get me wrong I'm sure glass cab would be lighter

 

a full tube chassis truck with a glass cab/body isn't going to weigh any more or less than a truck with a steel cab. Plus with a glass cab you can't even race certain classes that are worth racing at our level of income and support.

 

hooked up the lights yet aaron?

 

x2! i wanna see those little 6 led blitzpro lights lit up!

 

hilux race truck project

 

diesel?

 

i'm assuming it is... i got the pics from TTORA. there's a link to facebook where i'm sure there is more info, but i dont have a FB so i can't see anything

 

nope

 

Thats a weird bolt pattern to choose. Looks like wide 5 from a VW

 

Well they are doing a VW style rear on it

 

Yea but that rearend is so custom it would not have been much more work to do a dana44 snout and hub or something along those line. Plus wide 5 wheel selection is limited.

 

truck looks good
