Long Travel BS Thread

If anything it's a triumph for Toyota and how solid their trucks are so...props to Toyota

 

x29294848282. He is a complete douche nozzle.

 

DMZ kit ships tomorrow! STOKED.

 

honestly didn't realize the lack of parts that went into the front...so they linked the rear on coils but couldn't bother to put on some upgraded coil over shocks and new control arms up front?

If I remember right when they were actually doing the record run one of the memebrs of the team was on here posting and answering questions. Their site got a large amount of traffic from here so they came to see what was up. Honestly don't remember anyone asking about the front susp. set up. Maybe they hadn't released pics at the time?

 

anyone looking to go heavier (16" 600lb) spring that has something lighter than that?

 

My driver side sits an inch lower than my passenger side..so annoying



The front of the truck measures even, I dont get it

 

is that strapped? because if it is, just lower the mount on one side

 

Nope it's not strapped in this picture. The passenger side tire was just about off the ground

 

I have the same problem on my truck except on the passenger side. I'm pretty sure its cause its the side with the gas tank

 

My front leans about 0.5" to the drivers and the rear leans about 1.25" to the passenger...

 

It just means that you have to cut off the back of the frame and link it

 

Is your tank full in that pic? Cause that'd add to the frame twisting down that way.

What's the frame measurements from the ground on each side? Does that account for the 1" difference? Are your straps not limiting travel on both sides?

 

I have about a half tank in there. I've measured close to empty before and same result. In the picture the limit straps are off. I'm buying new ones today since the new bed cage sits about 2-3" inches higher than my previous bed cage.

 

I'd love to read that! Yeah i was just thinking the whole time people on TW would shit themselves if they saw what i was seeing. I was cracking up with my friends at the stock everything, looks like they cut a bunch of subframe out and tossed in some taller coils and called it good. I bet if someone took their 4x4 lt truck on here, insulated the tits out of it, they could SMASH this record. I'd love to ask this guy what they were thinking haha. At least top gear did it right when they had that finnish company build their rigs

 

same with my truck, I gave up and dont care about the lean anymore. hahah it looks perfect when there is only a 1/4 tank tho lol

 

that video wasn't even that dope.

 

You guys mad

 

I dont know man, it's awesome regardless of the driver. Just watching the suspension got me from 6 to midnight

 

yea i know..but with the budget they prolly had...they could have made it more epic. the truck was the best part for sure. i really dont care about the driver like everyone else does.

Regardless of his antics, this is good for dirt motorsports and the offroad industry. Wow!
