Long Travel BS Thread

Any one know someone selling 4.88s for the second gen? Preferably nitro. Whole axle being sold would also be good

 

4.88 if you like freeway, 5.29 for dirt

 

Hey shawn, I sent you a pm.

 

Cool video

 

can anyone who has some pics of the fitment of fenders on there second gen post some pics. I feel like mine do not fit well at all. I understand they are not going to be perfect, but i feel like they should fit better, especially around the headlights and front of the hood. Also, did you guys do anything special when mounting the headlights to get them to fit better? Anything would help, thanks guys.

 

all fenders for 2nd gens fit like crap most of the time.

 

This thing is for sale, right in my nieghborhood i see it going to work sometimes...

Mine fit surprisingly perfect, I feel McNeil is best over all, I had to sandpaper dremel some of the excess glass in the headlights but not more than a fee millimeters.

 

First post didn't attach right

 

yeah those look good! i guess mine aren't too bad, i was just hoping they would be a little better haha.

 

Alright guys im trying to decide what shocks to go with. Im mainly looking at ads and kings. Any advice would help

 

I'm a bit of a perfectionist also, bout to repaint mine soon, I've put it off cuz I know it's going to take me forever to get it the way I like it.

 

Ads, smaller local company to us!

 

Ya and more expensive IIRC

 

how are you painting yours?

 

My dewalt 6" sander with 4 stages of sanding, 2 solid primer coats, 3 color coats and prob about 5 clear coats so when it gets sand blasted I can just compound rub them and it will fix and fill in the blemishes. Also wet sanding between color coats

 

what paint you using? where you going to get it?

 

Still haven't decided on paint, any super white will match damn close but factory match is about 300 bucks to paint bedsides and fenders so I'll prob buy some sherwin Williams super white and call it good, I'll be repainting the whole truck later so I'm not too worried

 

I used house of colors oxford white and house of colors clear. Looks damn good. Kinda pricey but for a mall crawler like myself it's worth it

 

Really? I was looking at their stuff and it's not much more than basic paints, it matched well?
