Alaska BS thread

Crap I just looked and they have the 5/8" bushing and first gens have a 3/4" / 19mm mount.. I'm sure it would be pretty easy to ream out the bushing just a hair and they'd work just fine though. If you're running dakars, which I think you are, I'd be willing to be the nitrocharger is limiting your droop.

They're $150 new plus shipping so I'd take like $125. They are brand new, still in the box.

 

I think you can find a set of the 3/4" bushings fairly easily too and just swap them in. Might be easier.

They are limiting my droop. About 1.75 inches lol. But I can't swing that much right now. GLWS.

 

So they are for a Toyota pickup? is this the part number 110007-1? I may be interested

 

Try relocating them a bit further inboard. That's what I did and I gained a couple inches of droop without getting new shocks. All it costs is a few shock tabs and asking Anna nicely to use her welder gahah

 

The bilstein part number is 33-185552.

Not sure what size shock mount the pickups have but if it's a bushing on both ends you can easily swap in the correct sized bushings for cheap.

 

By inboard do you mean straight up and down?

I have my own welder...

 

As in a few inches closer to the center of the axle. Keeping them vertical maintains full damping abilities of the shock, but triangulating them a little will gain you even more droop.

I moved mine like 5-6 inches closer to the center on each side and it gained me a couple inches of droop and kept the same shocks. Unfortunately they still aren't quite long enough hence buying the 10" 5125's

 

lol

*easily bribed with beer*

 

Level = Professional


But i like yours better.... going pro is not always a good thing. lol

 

I can't do beer as much as I can duck farts....... Duck farts all the way!

 

Hey Ben how long would it take the guys at GTF to remove a leaf from each of my leaf packs in the rear? I want a little less height back there to make the truck sit more with a factory rake, its not too bad right now but just a little too much rake for my taste. Also I'll get that new switch installed while its there.

 

Just put a nice heavy duty rack and tent back there.....problem solved

 

So this happened today......

 

Actually my next plans, but I'm just concerned that with the RTT back there, and eventually my pelfreybilt front with winch that the front would still be a lot lower. Even though I am going aluminum, but I guess there's only one way to find out! How long did your CVT take to get here after ordering? I don't do any winter camping lol but I'm just curious

 

Did you get angry at it?

 

It kept glitching out and a horrible song was on and I couldn't change the station.... I honestly didn't think I hit it that hard.... My boyfriend looked at me with that "did you seriously just fucking do that?!?!" Look.
