Long Travel BS Thread

I've tried everything...gonna have to fab some shit lol

 

Planning on ditching the DB soon, for a TC +2

 

I think I remember reading somewhere on here about someone breaking their main leaf on an all-pro 50T pack. I just broke one of mine at the wrap in the front. Do you guys know who can make a new one? thanks

 

Atlas springs can make new ones. They did for a guy on DR.

 

The thing with paint, powder and plastic dip is that it retains and traps heat?
If this is the only option and what you end up doing, I would recommend using a good oil like Maxima's synthetic. It is made to reduce temps, and will help to combat the trapping of the heat.

 

It was nice meeting you yesterday. The tundra is rad, I cant wait to see what you come up with when changing up the rear. Should be pretty cool.

 

Deaver spring will make a new main for them too even though they aren't deavers. You will have to take the whole pack to them though.

 

Santabarbarataco (Jordan) broke his main leaf. He got a replacement from engage.

 

I don't know if it would effect the internal oil temp enough to matter or not. Besides, Ivan Stewarts old stadium truck had painted shocks, so it must be ok. Ha!

 

Shocks and technology have come a long way since then.. Plus im sure with that set up, he didn't run the same shock twice. I would think they put new ones on when they prep'd it.

 

This call up engage and they have new ones in stock. It was like $120 for the new leaf. Mine broke right at the eyelet also

 

Any of you guys know if a 4x4 ECU will work on a pre runner? same engine same trans

 

I called engage and they said that the springs were back ordered. There's a local place by me that said they can make a new one for me too so I'm just going to do that and have both sets rebuilt while I'm at it.

 

Selling some 8" coilovers for anyone looking. Nonresi with springs.

The wiring is not present AFAIK, but it will work if you have all of that. The other missing components are the gauge cluster (has the 4wd indicator light), the 4wd switch, the front diff ADD, and obviously T-case. Interestingly, the 6 speed manual T-case has a speed sensor in it not present in auto's or prerunners and I don't know how that would factor in. I have deleted all of that myself, and converted to manual shift T-case. I also just leave the ADD in the "locked" position.

 

I just got this ECM on a junk yard its off a 05 AC 4.0 auto, will it work on my 07 DC 4.0 auto?

 

I see what you mean, lol. Not the ECU that controls the 4wd system, but the ECU that controls the engine. I don't see why it wouldn't work other than the immobilizer. I think you have to get the dealership to burn your vin into the new ECU, but that is just something I read on the interwebz. Try it and see what happens man.

 

Great Ill try it when I get home from work, saw a few ways to get that immobilizer to work without having to go to the dealership

 

Ya I think there are some remote start doo hickeys that bypass it too...

 

Why do you need a new ecu?
