+SconnieHailer's Build & BS+

Yea, that's a good way to put it. It seemed like the eye to eye didnt want to shorten anymore, like I said we even got a bar levered on the shackle and it just felt like we were fighting the spring to move the shackle forward... Oh well, no real complaints with the situation just odd and I kind of want to just know the answer.

 

haha with gears and a full urd setup I could probably do that on pavement Although that'd be a very bad idea I think

 

Just add a +3.5" kit up front and you'll he wide enough and be fine

 

I looked for a video I saw once of a failed drift on a second gen and couldn't find it, you're right, its a bad idea.

 

Is it the one where the guy does an almost slow-mo roll and just stops on his top and starts screaming and swearing? Haha. He was being dumb in general.

But either way yeah I would be a little leary with that tent on top. Adds to suspension roll when cornering I'm sure.

 

I remember that video I think. From on road to off-road "drift", the roll. Next to a bunch of other Tacos?

 

Thats the video, the swearing is the best part, too funny

 

yup thats the video i'm thinking of too. that tent up there really makes anything more than in the video I took feel really unsettling haha

 

Yep. Like I said it was pretty stupid on his part. I think the biggest factor was he seems to only half way commit to the drift.

Yep haha!!



Found it... but it apparently isn't viewable anymore...

 

That is an Epic Picture!

 

Yep! All because he let off the throttle when he should pinned it. haha

 

Friction circle physics learned the hard way haha

 

Hey Marc it states you have a 24" Maggie in your specs but you commented on Joel's thread (J.J. Hitchens) that you have an 18" Maggie!? I liked the sound of your muffler from the video clip you also posted! I don't think magnaflow makes a 24". Also, did you go 2.25" or 2.5" on the muffler entry/exit and offset/offset? Thanks for your help I'm gonna be buying a muffler to weld into stock location soon and yours sounded great!

 

Hey sorry Dave, I havn't updated that part of the first page I had the 24" 12286# on the truck and put the 18" 12256# on about 2 months ago. The video in Joel's build is the 18"

Edit: there, fixed the first page and added a link to the video

 

You are the man, thanks!

 

Hey Marc! I just got my 18" magnaflow installed today...You inspired me with that powerslide video you posted. I'm loving the sound so far. Thanks again. And you should go with the MT/R for your next set of tires. They are badass man.

 

Nice Dave! I like to drive around with my rear passenger window open so i can hear that sweet maggie sound

I'm thinking about some 315 MTR's for the next set come next spring Would bring some big changes for Whitey!

 

wooo hooo 315s!!!!! Tell Whitey you are gonna give her a bit of a trim... Yeah I think I just wasted about $10 by just flooring it after a stop just to hear the sweet sound.

 

Yea the 18" wasn't good for my mileage either...

 

Hahahaha story of my life
