Long Travel BS Thread

thank god Im done with my truck, I remember dropping $3K at the swap meet last year

building other toys now

 

Super fun, nothing broke and i don't need to tear the truck apart to address anything right now, which is nice. Was hopeing to run into you guys out there, that red dodge looked really clean.

 

That's always nice when nothing breaks. Yeah, we were hoping to run into you as well. I really wanted to see your 4runner on the move. The dodge is nice, it just needs to be finished.

 

Perry fab n fiber

I was standing next to Chris Kim at the sway away booth I should of said hello but I was spacing on 4 hrs of sleep lol

 

yea no worries man, its all good. was hoping fiberwerx was going to have bedsides but didnt see any and didnt think to ask if the deal would transfer to orders... looks like you guys got some good deals

 

quick question in regards to front limit straps.
i got the adjustable kind with the TC kit, what sort of angle should these be mounted at so they dont break or rip off the frame?

 

You want them so they clevis is pointing as straight as possible to the tab on the arm

 

Thanks dude, yeah deals aplenty. We're going to be a vendor next year

perry fab n fiber is excepting orders at swapmeet price for the next week.

 

FYI they include stainless steel uniballs for their UCA's and Long Travel

"Total Chaos includes uniballs that feature a heat treated stainless steel ball & heat treated stainless steel race for maximum corrosion resistance and longevity. The uniball also features a woven fabric Teflon liner that helps prevent noise"

 

Trucks are gay
upper link mount didn't want to stay on the frame during race, this is what happens to 1 3/4'' 4130

 

Shit Tyler, bummer city . What else dnf'd on the truck ?

 

supercharger seal blew the first lap, sprayed oil on windshield so I couldn’t see shit, lost boost. Then upper link mount ripped off because I kept hitting the shit too hard not being able to see, haha. Glad everyone is excited about passing me when I'm driving blind at 10mph with my co-driver calling out turns for me

 

Shoulda stopped by the swap meet and bought some windshield wipers

 

Thanks, I'll give he shout.

 

haha I have them, but the oil doesnt wipe very good

 

Lather, rinse, repeat.
Race, break, rebuild.

And chicks don't get the correlation. Pshhh.

 

Let's talk rear glass. What size and what brand for my 1st gen? My 9" is 66 wms to wms, running 31-1050s , and I think with rim offset tossed in, I'll be 82-84 " wide. What does that translate into as far as glass measurements? And no trophy glass for me. I haven't bought the fake ball sack to put under the truck yet. 6 "? 8"? Flat tops a must.

8'' and you will still have to kick them out

 

Hope I can squeeze it since I'm keeping the bed.
