Long Travel BS Thread

10Psi in sand...only blew the bead once.

 

I run 15psi and have never blew a bead... Just broke the rims that one time and still didnt come off the rim.

 

We have been have good luck with the powerstop stuff. Fairly inexpensive and work pretty well.

Whose LT are you going with?

 

I have all Powerstop stuff now. Braking was greatly enhanced when I changed out the rotors and pads. I also did SS lines at the same time.

 

I believe he is going with Dirt Designs.

 

completely wrong haha


DTF is building it!

 

finally ordered some heim uppers for my truck, its finally time to fix my wonky alignment. lol

what alignment numbers are you guys running or what do you personally think is optimal. Im thinkin 2-3* of caster, 0* camber

 

I'm around 3-4* caster and 0-1* camber

 

Awesome. I really need to do this.

 

-2* caster ): -.8 camber

 

have you cut your cab mount back at all? I forgot what my numbers are at right now but my tire is pretty close to the cab mount at full lock/stuff. if I had a brand new tire I think it would rub ahaha

it'll be worth it dude do it! cost me about 950 and some change for the uppers and new LCA bushings the damn things don't even come with uniballs hahaha

I got really tired of always having to buy used tires lol, I want a fresh set of meats on my truck for once.

now the only thing that blows about this heim setup is that im going to have to cut out a portion of my coilbucket gussets.

 

with your neg. caster does your truck feel squirrely on the street at all?

 

hes running 32s....never rubs hahah.

 

only on the fwy....only other thing is that the steering wheel doesn't return to center...im used to it though...have heims too but not really sure how to adjust for more caster

 

shit hahah going to bump up to a 295, I should be fine.

 

I have 35s but the tire doesn't even come close to the cab mount...only rubbed on the bottom of the fender until I added a little preload

 

Lol Thats why I decided to make my own Hiemed uppers. I got most of the parts already just waiting on some more and then its time to make the new uppers.

 

nice, you have a jig setup already?

 

What size heims are you going to use? And does there have to be right and left threaded ones?
