Long Travel BS Thread

Yeah thats what i started to think, doesnt matter though i couldn't be happier at this point lol

 

another thing to help with it bouncing around is going thicker on the rebound side(if you still want to change even more). thats what im going to be doing since i decided to keep my 600 lb spring.

 

^ nice. nothing better than a setup working well! What is your nitrogen PSI? if you know...

 

we he really doesnt like to be questioned about his "kit'

knew i shoulda gone dmz...

 

Who installed the actual kit?

What are the issues you are having..I know you've said rides harsh and not getting advertised travel..anything else?

 

American motorsports did it....yeah 13" travel metal to metal....bucks pretty damn bad in any medium sized whoops.......so i just sent him a email asking about why i only get 13 and he advertises 15....then i asked about the bucking....but the whole time he seemed pissed off and annoyed.

 

Haha Anthony. What do you want him to do?

 

i didnt want him to do anything...was merely just asking a question, didnt expect to get treated like shit...whatever.

 

Man... the more I here about the defined kit the less I want to get it...

 

i bucked so bad in pismo this weekend i almost thought i was doing a front flip.....save up a little more and go with dmz rear or 50t pack.

 

I think I will.

 

Haha his ending. totally thought he was going to say Come at me bro

 

At least he got back to you..I sent that guy a PM or two over at TTORA and never got any replies back. Whatever lol.

 

Wow, this was enough for me to completely say no to the kit altogether, I'll being going with a different company, what an ass hole

 

Mike has been nothing but nice in email communication to me.

I'm curious what your email to him looked like.

 

HAHAHAHA!!
wow that got heated!

 

X2, I considered that kit for a while, but after reading that, and hearing what you had to say about it....no thanks

 

Ill just leave this here... I know giant has been bashed on here aswell but i really do like the kit, i did the whole install, the kit was used but the leafs have yet to show any sagging or wearing. 64"ftw


This is as far as my jack would raise. for reference those are 315 bfgs. it still drops another 1-2"

Now i need shocks.
Might pick these guys up.

Just to clarify, I don't think its a bad kit. I just don't think its capable of handling like the other kits its equally spoken about. I bought the kit thinking it would handle like a dmz or 50T setup which it definitely doesn't. (Partially my mistake for taking defined's word for it without talking to other companies).
Its a good mid travel kit in my opinion.

Anthony, sell your kit and just move on

 

I agree with this. I was unaware that the kit is designed for a 14" shock, didn't know this until Mike told me (Not on there website description). That's what makes tuning so hard for us that have 16" shocks.

I plan on giving it a few more months to get tuning and if it doesn't get to where I think it should be I will get some f70's.
