Long Travel BS Thread

I use some cave man type shit to change my uni-balls lol

 

I've put them in the freezer before, Works like a charm!

 

a few months ago this thing was on CL for $4500 gave the number a call and a lady answered and she didn't know wtf she was selling. Told her I wanted to check it out, said shed call me back. I was going to drive up and give her cash pending a quick once over, and test drive. I called again and a guy answers pissed off saying there is a new price lol. CSB I know.... cool little truck though.

that things been for sale for at least 6 months. i wonder why?

 

been wondering the same thing.

 

this is a good idea! im gonna throw mine in now... that along with a bj press should make easy work of getting them in, right?

 

Anyone have pics of a homebuilt uniball press

 

bench vise and bfh work fine

 

Yes the bfh as worked well for me in the past.

Got bored last night and tried building one though, Still have to rattle can the cups...

 

Nice!!!!

We have these if there is anyone out there who can't build them.

That's the whole reason they are discussing these. They feel it's too expensive. LOL

 

I have not pressed in any suspension bearings but that is what you are supposed to do with press fit bearings in motors If you can put the arm in the oven it would also help

 

LOL missed that one!

YA, they are $$$. The Kit is not really needed unless your putting it on a chase truck or in the truck. The tool itself is not a bad price for the guys who do not have the skill or means to make a tool. I can get you guys a TW discount on them. Every bit helps.

The price of the tool alone is most likely less that what a shop rate wold be to press them out. Unless the shop has the same tool. It let us drop our time for the customer.

AGM makes some cool stuff. Their CV savers are awesome too.

 

Need to get 10" shocks, anyone know wut springs I should get?

 

Leaf Springs or Coil Springs? And do you mean a 10" Coilover or rear shock?

 

Coil springs, like for my front coil over

 

You're gunna be running a 10" Coilover? With what kit?

The specs of the kit will play a factor in spring rates etc

 

Engage kit, uniball upper and lowers, heimed uca and steering

 

All pro lt...if I was to get a slightly longer lower shock bolt, and put a limiting strap to that, would that be strong enough? I don't do much baja, but of course I'd want it to not break.

 

Seems to me like you would rub your coil doing it that way. Might be prone to breaking the strap.
