Long Travel BS Thread

Thats exactly how i want to run eventually but now LSK wants to build me a race kit.... Lol but im prolly just gunna have them make me spindles bored to accept dana bearings.

 

If you are going to be running a dual rate setup, I would say 600/600. 10" stroke 10 & 12" or 12" stroke 12 & 14."

 

Get your kit right before you move up to a race kit.. IMO.. lol

 

but, if your going to get a race kit eventually, mise well do it first and save a grip of money. IMO

 

stock rear, no cage, race kit... seems legit

 

thats how ballers do it!

 

Nothing wrong with my kit...

Plus if im getting a race kit, i wouldnt have my current one so.it would be pointless to "get it right"..

 

stock rear? all pro leafs

 

still spring over with shocks and leafs in stock location... yeah, stock rear

 

Its a work in progress. I have lt front and mt rear. Wouldnt be that different have a race kit.with a temp mt rear. I know you guys like putting your trucks together from the back then work your way to the front. I just chose to do.it differently is all.

 

true.....time for rear lt !

 

I agree. The mt rear rides harsh and the travel isnt too dramatically different than a stock rear. Just sits higher and rides harsher imho.

 

True but its just an idea. I highly doubt im gunna fork over a shit ton of money again for a new kit when for the same price, i can just lt the rear and still have a lt front.

 

Turns out they are actually standards. I came across a guy who had a lease on his truck and was desperate to get a stock setup or he would have to pay fees so he sold me bilstiens front and rear, camburg ucas and the allpro standards for $300. The truck sat stinkbug after we installed it and i couldnt read the numbers on the leaf pack so.i.thought they were expos but turns out the guy bought them off of Aaron(blackhawke88) and when i talked to him, he told me they were actually standards.

 

Got the frame cleaned up..front and rear hangers are completely off..

 

looking good. Are you boxing it, and adding some supports in between the frame where the spare tire carrier was? And are you keeping it SOA?

 

Yep..boxing and supporting..I've got the 50t pack..going lt sua..going to be cuting the hangers tomorrow..
