Long Travel BS Thread

just an fyi 100ft of dom wasnt enough for my cage. you will probably need more

 

I know we talked before about cages when you were asking about camber and caster, but were you planning on racing this truck? Score tagging at any point down the road?

 

Yea i will need a lot more. Roughly 200 feet more

Racing is in the air right now. I'm sure the truck may get raced eventually. But maybe 1-2 races a year Max since I don't think I can afford to race. No plans to score tag the truck. If the truck falls under the 4k lb weight limit. Ill take it to get tagged for possible resell value in the future.

 

That's a good plan, i was just curious.

On a side note i think i have figured out my next project. something i wanted to build for years.

 

You have always wanted to make a clevis that will go on to Tacoma steering racks? I had no idea, thanks Landon I kid, I kid

 

Actually i have a source for those ha.

But i was talking about a whole truck

What size in the thread on the rack?

 

American Motorsports makes the rack clevis mounts.

 

Lol i figured your plans are much bigger than a clevis

I'm not sure. Ive seen it before but cant remember where

Oh reery? I will have to look into that. I want to make heimed steering

 

Race truck being pulled by a tundy alright...... Lol

 

Niiice

 

I cant remember who was asking about my corner lights but this is a shot from the backside showing how I strapped them to the core support. No movement

 

Oh snap! Didnt even think about doing something like that!

 

If I remember the factory 1st gen prerunner rack is M16 wonder if 2nd Gen is the same

 

you dont really have corner lights....

 

Im not too good with thread size stuff, M16 gives size and thread pitch?

I wasnt too hard. I did predill the light because I was afraid it would crack but the other one is just a sheet metal screw. Hell count the number of holes I have and you would know how long it needs to be, predrill then screw the piece on the light and install. Then use a hand held drill with a long extension and just make sure there is nothing on the backside of the core support and its pretty easy

 

No, But I do have ballasts to secure, and headlights that need securing
