Hiatt1991's Build. (never done)

Sounds good. How does the valving so far feel? Stiff soft?

 

after careful consideration, i have come to the conclusion that i am in fact, jelly. looks good. when do we get to see her in person?

 

Is that going to hit the spindle? Thats at ride height, right?

 

No it doesnt hit. It has plenty of room before the straps start to.limit

 

Nope. It doesnt hit and yes i want the caps.lol

 

Valving is softer than the icons so im used to it. Feels pretty good but the passanger side fox has a leak where the body meets the shock top. Can u fix that seal??

 

Also, you got to realize you have barely any preload so your arms sit nearly flat when you are on level ground. Thats why yours look strait.

 

Cool, Hmm there probably should be a oring seal there if not the threads need a sealing. Need to see it.

 

I pulled up the diagram. Its a seal. Is it something you can get to?

 

Truck looks sweet!!!! Now get some tires haha

 

Normally a cam tab has one contact point versus ours which contact the whole surface on both sides. We're pretty confident it will hold up. We'll find out new years if it works. The customer/installer always has the option of welding them.

 

How much does the kit run?

 

I was going to do the same thing but with no adjustment just as a non weld cam bolt replacement also to beef up the lowers to 3/4" hardware.

 

Ya thats exactly what we were going for. They are only supposed to go on one way.

 

LSK ALL THE WAY

 

I would at least put a bead on the backside of the cam tabs if your worried about it being removable

 

congrats hiatt

 

We forgot to mention that we moved the bolt as far forward in the cam tabs as possible so that it cannot move forward (away from motor). The only direction it can move is backwards, and our stress analysis shows that it can only move backwards if it lands at a certain angle on the side of the wheel. If it does then the larger contact patch will keep it from bending. It is harder to bend in the corner of the tab, rather than the stock cam adjusters contacting just one single point in the middle will cause a stress riser. If the cam tab does fold, we are more than happy to weld it in place after testing (its just a trial to see if we can make the kit easier to install). Thanks

 

Hiatt use to have lift spindles, and his rear end was already lifted. When we put the stock spindles on, we had to lift it up as much as we could to level it out before coil bind. This is only temporary until we can fabricate some spindles for these Tacomas. At ride height on our design, we have the uni-ball perfectly centered compensating 50% up and down travel. Thanks!
