Anthony's 99 Tacoma

Nice, makes everything that much easier. what size tube & how much clearance do you have with the bed?

 

1.5" Tube, and if you look at the other pics its all the way to the back of the truck,and theres about 1/4" of clearance or less. I did this because its a 12" shock and need all the room

 

I'm going to be using 10" short bodies so I don't need as much room but I'm not welding my lower mounts as low as yours. I'll probably keep the mounts high as possible on top.

What are you valved at?

 

Oh okay cool. Its valved at around 0.10" to .012" and 0.15" for progressive compression and 0.08" on rebound but in Bilstein valving which is a metric stack.

 

Thanks for your help. I know I can get shock mounts anywhere but where did you get your upper mounts.

 

I got them from IMS in Sun valley. They are just standard 1.5" tube mounts for 1/2" bolt.

 

Thanks. I'm going to take a better look at your truck at the next race.

 

Looks good!

 

Thanks dude. More changes lol

Here it is 33"

 

Looks good man!

 

Looking good, Anthony.

Debating on running smoothies in the front as a secondary shock for now until I can afford to buy bypasses and then I remembered you were running them. Pretty much the same setup as yours except 2.0x10 to pair up with my 2.5x10 coilovers. Is it worth it if I end up paying around how much you spent for yours? Sounds like it made some difference in the dampening.
