Long Travel BS Thread

stinkbug ftw!!

haha i got the 50t and im a bit stink bug, im fine with it though, the truck handles great with it like that

and i never hit my bump stops, well i do, but not very often

 

Yep its all about set-up and fitting your own trucks needs.
Your truck works good, ive seen it in action.
*The Leaf springs are only one factor. Shackles, Leaf placement, shock angle, rear end etc. etc.. etc... I can go on for a while..lol
I honestly think it is way harder to set up a leaf sprung truck than a linked truck IMO. The years I raced in Linked trucks, we only spent a fraction of time on setting up the rear compared to Leafs.

 

But of course usually do one in march for a weekend. But we do a lot a day runs too. Let me know when u wanna go and we can throw something together if u wanna a day run. Weekends take a lil planning, but we can do that too.

Fixing my motor mounts at DTF's Saturday....so I have a lot of mobbing to catch up on! Barely used my truck this last 8-10 months cuz was getting ready for the rear lt.






Hell ya Bryan! Dr.Blagg is a leafologist! good info there man!

ratchet strap vs grabber...how the hell!?

 

ratchet strap 1
grabber 0

was it a spare? was there a wheel on it?

 

Explain?

 

Ideas on aftermarket seat mounting to a non caged truck ? Im thinking of building a "sub frame" if you will, out of 1.75 .120 wall DOM(same shit ill be caging it with) and tying the cage into it later. Thoughts ?

 

I got 2 more in my garage left

 

Nope, no wheel on it. I was loading it into my truck over my spares and the tire got caught on the strap and i pulled on it a couple times and it sliced open. Too bad for the guy who came to pick it up lol

 

That's the way my truck is done right now.. Works awesome. Bolts into the stock seat mounts.
