Long Travel BS Thread

You can see the tg mount doesn't sit flat on the purch...it's slight crooked...yours are like that too?

 

I think u may best off citing those perches off and slapping those dmz replacement perches on.

 

better late than never!!! glad to see Tim finally knocked these out. the 1st gen perches have been in the works since 2011-2012-ish

 

Seems like more work than I can handle haha

 

Any more vids from tough trucks out there???

 

This^^^ I assume they are on IG but I don't go there so links would be helpful

 

This was my 1st run, I was the 5th truck off the line and the 1st whoop section was pretty rough until after the 1st round when it got wore down. I took it slow, the 2nd truck off broke their drive shaft and the 3rd almost got stuck since it was still loose. My 1st run was 52 sec, but by the end I improved to 44 sec. I placed 13th our of 27 after combining the 1st and 2nd run times. Still waiting on a few friends that took some video to upload and send to me.

Overall it was a great experience and I'm glad TcYota talked me into doing it this year. Looking forward to next year already. We need to have more Tacoma's representing! MadTaco461 was the only other TW member out there yesterday out of 27 street trucks.

Here is the final time sheet:

 

That's pretty sick Matt

 

At least some people on TW actually use their LT

 

I need more power! Matt you got done good times. Very fun yesterday. At least I wasn't last. Who can drive their lt truck to a race and drive it back home!?

 

You're truck sounded sweet on Tuesday I got a lot of footage of it

 

Thanks man!

 

Do the 96-02 4Runner Non Locker Diff's fit the first gen tundra axle?

 

i believe so, but check this link to confirm.

Ahhh gotcha.

I see now.

Could be worth it then. But lot of work

 

Yes they do. Same diff is in 1st gen taco and 2nd gen taco and 1 st gen tundra.

 

Is yours like that or straight? When I tighten the bolt it sits flat but you can still see the purch isn't " -- "

 

Mine is flat....for now...might not stay that way for long..

 

Well looks like I broke my first diff. I was getting this insane howling whining sound on decel so I pulled the third and put in a stock one I have lying around. Sound went away completely. Now hopefull east coast gear supply will help me out and replace my did as it was only a few months old and had less that 2000 miles on it.
