Long Travel BS Thread

Gorgeous!! ^^

@FBGW

 

Thanks guys! Got the air bumps and straps already just gotta cycle it and weld them up

 

I like the pics with the race course in the background. That track was so fun!

 

how can i fix this?

 

I would say hammer it flat, plate the top, coil bucket gussets, and whatever else u can to make sure it don't bend again

 

with an engine cage..

 

brian are yours worse than mine? lol


thats a pretty expensive option haha

 

You guys are both crazy...lol

 

my passenger side is that bad, driver side not so much. that passenger side took a beating dropping off a dune.... hahaha. but what also you could do is just run a simple hoop over it. ask alex (ntydog13) how he did his. adam did it im pretty sure.

ill go take a picture right now.

come play, i need another single cab companion

 

Do you ever come down to the desert or mainly pismo? I know its super close to your house but i am defenetly getting out to pismo this summer!!

 

im really waiting till i have some sort of engine cage to go to the desert.. if pismo is bending my shit and the sand if forgiving, i dont wanna break in the desert. but im down to hit pismo anytime man, just let me know.

 

Pick ups don't have coil buckets. We have to weld on shock hoops just to run our lt. Adam just ran a tube over the engine to connect and strengthen them

 

Engine cage

 

idk if i could do that with the 8's... looks like the tube would have to be low and would contact the uca.

 

My buddy is supposed to be picking up that dmz built truck with the engine cage if u wanna scope that

 

Chop the top of the coil bucket off, re-plate and gusset, and add shock tabs.

 

I wanna scope ur truck....

 

U already did! Adam sent me some pics this weekend cage is moving along pretty well all the work looks great I'm guessing another 2 weeks if there arnt any hiccups he seemed to be making quick work of it but idk I'm not a fabricator

 

hmmmm thats a good idea....wouldnt it be very hard to get the bolt in though?

 

Cut a hole in the side of the coil bucket that can fit a bolt and socket thru
