Long Travel BS Thread

that truck looks so beyond beat up and not maintained... it's sad

it was so damn clean at the expo last year

 

you're welcome, i found one more in my photo bucket for ya

 

Hey can you guys look at this really quick, this price seems a lot lower then I had expected it to be. Just wanted to make sure it is legit. I think ORW is the vendor so I trust that but just to be certain.

looks right, thats not new axels or cvs, nor shocks or gussets.

 

not low, that's the average price. also keep in mind that price doesn't include shocks or axles

 

Ok cool, this kit is a lot cheaper than I had expected it to be. A better choice than the All Pro I think. Im considering it

And I think you may have noticed by now Matt, I am VERY INDECISIVE

 

idk what they are doing , ive given them so much advice that they just turned a blind eye to . only to have that problem bite them in the ass. they have made so many enemies over this truck its not even funny

idk know why they dont have some kind of simple bump in the rear , i told them they needed something besides the flimsy frame. i dont think the frame is bent , the ubolt hits the inside of the frame rail just bending that lower c-section in the frame, but i havent had a good look at the truck since the 250.

as for the front of the truck the whole design is crap and that why they are having a host of issues with it. the chain "limit straps" alone are a performance issue.

all i can say is out of all the problems with that truck my spring kit is not one of them. they built the truck for just one season and then it gets destroyed so they dont care much about it.hopefully they can pull off a finish for the 500, the toyota motorsports guys are prepping the truck now . the prep was half there problem.

 

you dont need a spanner for adjustment and most the time if you can get it to fit you can only go maybe an 1/8th of a turn, due to the coilbuckets

you can get a steel punch that fits in the hole or a long drillbit with the cutting side taped up or ground down. jack truck up, loosen collar lock , insert tool into recess and turn the collar. simple and much cheaper than a spanner wrench

 

just looked at it on icons site. if its the proper diameter pin it will work . if its free id take it regardless. i never met a tool that i couldent use

 

you're 4wd so remember you have to spend another 500 on extended axles

 

On Kings I have found that a 1/4" driver handle for sockets (like screwdriver/nutdriver) works gear. Nice firm handle and the perfect size.

 

Where's Max been at lately?



Let me call for him
