Long Travel BS Thread

2.5 4" king bumps at 50psi

 

Nick is great to work with and his price's can't be matched. I've had a bunch of stuff done on a few trucks by him over the last few months and I've been very happy with everything he's done for me. Can't say enough good things about the guy

Recently we built a chase rack for my F150 and it came out great

 

Good setup. Just slow down compression and speed rebound. It will make a world of difference

 

wow..i just realized i was referring to compression as rebound in my first post had it ass backwards...jesus..haha

Although out of curiosity..wouldn't a too fast of rebound make it buck more?

 

okay, im not super concerned, just didn't want unnecessary wear on components or funky handling. plus i was a little concerned i fucked something up on install thats causing that but I guess not. I'll just run it till engine cage / coils when i can get it nice and perfect (hopefully)

ehh we didn't have any heat and kept the dust down, so it seemed fine. plus had cameras with us, could make it appear like we weren't just screwing around. know any other tiny bumps around goleta?

 

It's only bucking because it's packing, once he gets in the whoops it can't droop out fast enough so it's only using the last few inches of travel.

 

Sounds good. Thanks for your help!!

 

ahhh okay.

 

You really don't want to be getting into the bump zone on whoops. Watch video of really well tuned trucks they actually stand up in fast whoop sections.

 

wait for engage to do the black friday sale and you can usualy snag a new 50T pack for like $450 thats probably when im gona pick one up lol

 

I might have to do that. We'll see how the valving goes

 

Hey guys. I just joined the longtravel team again. Im looking for some king 8 inch 2.5 Coilovers. Let me know what you find. Thank you

 

There are a few more on private property that iv seen but havnt hit cause again not worth the ticket. Just hit west u know where the 2-3 jumps are

 

Ya its to the iv side of the los caneros overpass

 

Leafs need the fastest rebound possible, .008" shims and tube all the way open, hell with smoothbodies sometimes I run an 8 stack minus a few shims to speed it up a bit!

 

aahhhh shit....Plan B time, been going the wrong way..

 

here is the part number. i replaced mine about a month ago and havent had any problems.

There's nothing you can really screw up on install as far as geometry on a kit that has set stock-ish based spindle geometry and uses stock frame pivots. And like username said, once you do an alignment, your geometry changes.

That kit has been run on so many dialed little trucks. It works great so don't worry about it.

 

and if you are going to get springs "re-arched" find out what process is used. Read this \/
