Long Travel BS Thread

Ouch hahaha

 

im guessing its an old ATS/Inland trucks kit maybe..

 

ive seen a couple on Racedezert and DR

 

Any LT guys have 18" 600lb springs and wanting to step down to 500s? I know its a longshot..just throwing it out there.

 

I'm looking into a +2 over LT kit soon

 

Soooooo if i throw some 8" shocks on...what kind of coils do i need? would like a little lift

 

I don't think so, Team TW has way more race miles.

 

Got that from a guy in san luis?

 

yup

 

ohh..

 

You can't just throw 8" coils on your truck without LT

 

well shit tht doesnt make me feel good

wut do you know?

 

was thinking the same thing...



spill the beans mr dtf

 

Sorry dude, but you didn't do your research and dove head first into an empty pool. Now the shocks are good, the rest is... well refer back to said statement.

That looks like a stock spec replacement and a lot of bump steer in the future.

So here we go. This is looking from the front of the vehicle. Left side is passenger side, right is driver. It't not that noticeable in the picture but the gap between the UCA and the tire on the driver (right) side is almost double the gap on the pass (left) side. Also note that both spindles have cracks in the welds at the bottom of the gussets.



Another thing that I noticed is when I park in my garage (where I worked on my alignment sunday night) I get a -0.5/-0.5 camber reading. But when I park anywhere else i dont need to measure it because the driver side looks very out of spec.

Am i making some error in my alignment at home or am i looking at the wrong areas to fix my issues?

 

Look at previous post...getting a +2 over

 

18" 600 lb springs i believe...might be 16"though haha

 

Will that support a plate bumper? I kinda want one...but may just go with a good looking tube one...

 

maybe try 650 lb if using a plate bumper
