Long Travel BS Thread

Sweet! I'll let you know when I'm coming through

 

I might be going to pismo Sunday if I finish my truck tomorrow

 

Could be tempted. If no one down here is doing anything, I might make the trek
EDIT: just looked it up. It'd be a 5 hr drive from where I'm at. I'll let you know whats up once I know more

 

Ok sounds good. Ill let you know of I finish

 

did my sensor come in by any chance?

 

Yep

 

fuck yea! whatre you doing sunday?

 

my travel may not be as long as some...but it is long

 

That doesnt look like calgary...


Nice pics.

 

Thanks man! yeah thank goodness im not in calgary! i hear the weather hasnt been really great.

 

Hmmm,

I plan on going defined LT with Fox 2.5 16'' double bypasses. Wanted to mount outside of the frame, but it will definitely be getting articulated.

Would 2'' wheel spacers clear the shock?

 

Yeah but as i learned, thats not the right shock for that kit....

 

What kind of issues are you having?

Bypass hitting in the wrong point in the shock's stroke?

 

Oh really?? Interesting. I ran Deavers for about 5 years and only broke the pack 2 times (great springs by the way, but they have to get re-arched after every race because they wear out fast)
But I run 50T springs on my race truck now and they work really good. They are a stiffer pack and do not wear out as fast. Its all about your geometry and how you set it up. But what do I know?

 

I ended up not getting bypasses, but yes. People like Krish and Lembowski are having problems due to that. i didnt want to cut into my bed so i kept my hoops and king is building me some shocks to fit them and collapse short enough to take advantage of being sua

 

Your 2nd gen right? You shouldn't have the same clearance issues

 

Agreed my buddy was running quads with the defined kid and bed cage and cleared fine.

 

It's been a royal fucking turd in Calgary. Thank goodness I've been in the Okanagan for most of it!

Where were those pics taken?

 

Did you buy Cliff's defined kit?
