Long Travel BS Thread

A buddy of mine did it to his for under 2 grand. Thats cheaper then buying another truck and building it to the same level.

 

i don't think itd be much of a stretch to build a supercharged full lt, even linked 4x4 first gen for under 25k...

 

Buy built and save yourself so much money.

 

Picked up 4 link kit and spindles

 

Sweet

 

I was thinking about a trailing arm set up to but having a double cab I don't know how it would workout.

 

Has anyone even done a 4 link trailing arm set up on a double cab 1st gen?

 

Yes it's been done

 

point me in the driection of your fancy one piece head lights people. 01-04. the ones im finding are crap.

 

i got the ebay ones that have an led strip under the headlight and converted them to my turn signal which is cool but other than that they are crap ive had to bondo the housing to keep water out

 

saw the led ones. i dont care for them. i read that guys were having a hard time like you are with keeping them sealed.

 

Hard to find what I want already built

 

Hey Jeff, on my OEM's the headlight is mounted to a bracket and the corner lights one side clips to the headlight and the outer end i just caulked it to the fender has not failed yet.
If that makes sense and may or may not work on yours

 

I used plumbers tape on my hoopty, screw one side to the light and one side to the body behind the light. One of my corner lights is broken from getting hit so hard and still havent had one pop out yet in 3 years

 

that might work. some sort of non hardening caulk. i still need to figure out how the headlights mount to the header pannel. i feel as though im missing either a plastic mount or some sort of special fasteners.

 

Mine don't mount using bolts i use silicone to the grill

 

you siliconed your headlights and corners in ? no bolts or nuts ?

 

Yep because the mounts get taken off with the stock fenders

 

Buy eddies truck and just s/c it
