Long Travel BS Thread

sounds good thank you
im going to have my dad machine my current ones down on a lathe, if that doesnt work ill be in.

 

No problem!

 

Contacted foa about revalving some 2.5 14in smooth bodies I bought they said 10/15... 10 compression 15 rebound? Does that sound about right.. These are going in the rear of my 98

 

Way to many factors go in to valving. Far to little information for anyone here to give you a honest answer.

 

Not even close, you need the rebound to be way lighter , I'd try 10 on comp and 8 on rebound , the comp will vary depending on how heavy you are though , might need to go to 12

 

Such a true statement!!!
Even your shock angle affects the valving.
A lot of guys have the shocks too angled and they are swinging more than being used.

**So 2 guys can have the exact same trucks with same valving but will work completely different. It depends on Shackles, shock angle, and shock placement on the truck. Plus how much weight your carrying etc....
It gets very complicated fast. There is not an easy answer for this as many of you guys already know. Took me years to figure it out. I got lucky because my friend works at KING and gave me the proper information.

 

Ahhh alright, thanks guys.
I'll just mess around with the valving this weekend or next.
Depends when I get around to making a bed cage
Work and school consume my life now

 

what cheap rubber bumps can you guys recommend for the rear of a 1st gen sua, 50t pack.
i plan on upgrading to hydro real soon but i need something for a few months

should i get the 3 inch or 4.5 inch tall ones?
im thinking 4.5s...

 

Just depends on what you need

 

ok thanks

do you know what each compresses to?

 

I would assume 75% but make sure your shocks are safe even if they fall off lol.
