Long Travel BS Thread

The filler itsself doesn't extend, if you needs some more length you could buy some gas hose and extend it

 

I was having the same problem I called tim at DMZ and he said there is alittle bracket holding the filler you gotta break or get it loose and then it will come out plenty

 

You are talking about the vent lines. I have not seen what others do but those should turn to rubber at some point, just go to an auto store and buy longer rubber portion and swap them out unless there is a clip like others said that is holding them. Sounds like you already did that with the filler part (largest hose), same thing with the smaller ones but you can buy generic lines of the same diameter

 

Phillips undercar in upland will. I had them do my truck.

Got these in the mail today! Last component needed for my rear long travel.

 

this was posted in another thread

 

Welp, thats fuckin dumb.

 

Defeats the purpose of having a truck

 

The title of that thread should be "How I made my truck a useless abortion"

 

hahahahhaha
says it pulls 15.x" of travel metal to metal? i wonder if that incorporates the axles too

 

Its 2x the work/cost for less than half the performance. Its like wiping your ass before you shit. Makes no sense.

 

I'm all for innovation...but this seems like a big step backwards in usability

 

This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

I know you guys have seen this truck and the other yellow one before but... x2 on the " it would be cool if it was LT"

 

x3 on if only it was long travel.

just curious though, what's everyone's reasoning on it being shitty? I could see it being way more expensive and complicated and less durable and stuff but it'd give you lots more ground clearance compared to a live axle setup wouldn't it?
no clue how it'd handle though... and does seem like a ton of work/maintenance for no gain. but i guess no one else can say they have a irs tundy haha

 

Dont think its better ground clearance.
you still have the diff sticking down there (higher but still there).
plus you lose the majority of the load carrying ability, lose a fair amount of travel compared to long travel leafs, dont see a way to easily mount bypasses, and many other things

 

Shouldn't ride any worse than a sequoia? Bullshit on 15" of travel though. The control arms are probably barely 15" long..

 

Yeah...no ones 4x4 front end is cycling those numbers and cv axles are always the limit to everyone's numbers, let alone stock length control arms, throwing a 10" shock doesn't necessarily mean more travel

 

That rear suspension cycles 8" I've seen it in person. That built it a joke.
