Long Travel BS Thread

I agree, but what if it started as a small fire that could have been contained? I just wanted to know what caused it.

 

I was wrong, raceworks just redid a bunch of stuff on the truck.

 

looks like stock front arm mounts so definitely not a custom chassis build

 

Anyone have a source for the raptor pics?

haahah didn't even notice the raceco on the skid

 

I wonder how that rigid bar held up

 

FIFY

 

it started in the engine bay and spread from there

 

Would an extinguisher have helped? Or was one used and it wasn't enough?

 

Once there's flames (like real severe flames not just smoke) you're best to just step away from the vehicle because it is most likely going to end with someone being injured, vehicles go up pretty quick.

 

Thanks broski.

 

Nothing burns like fuel, fiberglass and rubber

 

HEY GUYS! so i have a HUGE favor! check out this thread and tell me what you think about what direction I should go with my rear end?http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/suspension/293847-beater-badass-springs.html

 

Don't forget the paint!

 

That's it, I'm not painting the truck anymore. I'm just gonna cover it in asbestos... Sounds safer...

 

Sooo... question about DEAVER or ALL PRO? i have been doing a little research and the deaver setup is about 785$ and theALLPro is about 389$.... why such a big dif in price? and I am piloting a standared cab 96 taco that i am in process of making LT. does anyone have experience with the "3 leaf pack" from Deaver? or either of these 3 springs? i found pricing on the companies sites...http://www.deaverspring.com/products/leafstoy.html

 

Neither of those are long travel leafs..

 

isnt the deaver f55 or f67 considered "long travel"? im just trying to see the big picture for a capable rear end. mothing TOO incredibly crazy.. just enough to keep up with my TC LT kit...

 

well as a general rule..over build the rear if your planning on hitting the dunes hard. You want it be better then the front. A tame ass end with a slightly bucky front is going to be easier to keep under control then both bucky. Not that the TC kit is gonna be bucky cause its a great kit. just saying don't shoot for a "okay" rear setup, don't hold back too much. Not saying you need 4 link or anything either..
