San Diego BS Thread.

This x1000, after my accident I had creditors coming after me ever though I was fully insured. The insurance will not go out of their way at all. You have to stay on top of it and cram bills sent to you down their throat.

 

You'll find that more often than not it's the providers office that doesn't even bill the carriers.

 

Most of mine said the insurance only paid them X and i owed the balance Y. Either way make sure you get the absolute most out of your insurance, thats what its there for.

 

Also, once a hospital accepts payment from your insurance it is considered payment in full, even if its not the full amount, unless otherwise noted as a copay. Ran into that before.

 

I know this was like 4 pages ago but, I have SUA and my only real limitation for rock crawling is my body height and my tampoon. I have bash plates for my U-bolts. Also I running 62" deavers undersprung with 3.0 bypasses and it almost keeps up with the front. I know its apples and oranges from mine suspension to yours, but I haven't noticed a crawling issue with my SUA. I followed my buddy's stock rubicon down a trail, he was dragging worse than me, I am running 33's.

 

The only thing is a) I already bought the shock relocation kit, and b) I really don't want to punch through the bed....

Now riddle me this, if I use the BAMF shock relocation kit, lets say that stage 1 defined SUA kit and throw a 12" shock under there....what am I limiting or what will be the issues. I've already taken note from Gelo, make sure to have hydro bumps under there so now I'm thinking I don't exactly have to buy the super nice internal bypass rear shock, I can get away with a smoothie and a hydro bump

 

Your limiting travel, you are not going to be able to run 50 through the desert safely and your front end with 8" coilovers will still outperform your mid travel rear.

It's all about tuning, a smooth body and hydro can work well together.

 

So I am talking with Nick (Linked2002) this morning bouncing ideas off him for the rear, deciding if I want to try to keep everything out of the bed. He fires back "simple, lets do a cantilever"
Damnit, yet another idea to consider, not the easiest one to design or build but we do have the equipment. I have no idea which way I'm going to go with this

 

Could place the system where the spare is/was, Dixon brothers made something like that for the rangers.

 

A few exploders have done a cantilever setup with good numbers.

On the explorer forum on guy has a good build thread.

 

Was my original plan, but cost was going to be significantly more.

 

im sure you have seen it but if you have not check out happysmileys 4runner build on ttora, he did a canti on his runner...

 

sooo... wheres a close/cheap place to get an Icon rear shock rebuilt?

 

In SD go to DSM, in San Clemente I'm not sure.

 

Nah, just the stock unit comin un-vetted.

 

jeff, what kit are you running up front? your truck looks very streetable

 

Modified JD Fab uppers and lowers. Uppers had heim conversion. Drives great on the street, just need bumps and the front is good enough for now.

 

Saw your twin at wal mart yesterday. The white truck with a tool box in it.

 

If anybody needs wheel spacers...
