SwayAway RaceRunner 2.0 Coilovers - Extended Travel 95-04 Tacoma

Sold!

 

Good deal you've got, Alex. What did you replace then with??

 

something big, silver & black...

 

How long did you ride on the 500lb springs

 

To be honest I don't recall when it was that I installed them, I want to say they've been on the truck for 4-5 months now.

 

Looked back, installed them mid-March.

And cycled the suspension without the spring on. #becauseracetruck

 

ADS??

 

Do you know the dimensions of the springs? or part number? I'm looking into getting some lighter springs for my SAWs but they are the standard travel.

 

How much to ship to 45044?

 

PM sent

 

What is the measurable length of exposed shaft? or shocks travel on these?

 

I'm going to get some pictures here shortly, and rather than emailing them to everyone, I'm just going to post them here, so keep your eyes out, folks.

Here's a link to the coils I ordered (500lb). I'm not sure if 14" springs would work on the standard travel, I have the feeling they won't, but I'm not the expert... Maybe give Low Range a shout? Their customer service has been pretty solid for me so far.

Shipping for most of the country is working out to be:
Coilovers: $35
Extra coils: $30

Responded.

Uh... Hold tight, I've got to go grab them. I don't believe the exposed shaft on these really equals available travel when installed on the truck (unless all the bump stops are removed and you somehow manage super-compression).

 

Pics & specs:
Eye-to-eye length: 19.75"
Top cap thingy to center of lower eyelet: 20.125"
Visible shaft: 5.75"
Available *actual* travel: maybe 5.5"? Not really sure.

Condition:
Functionally excellent. Zero corrosion or damage to the shock shaft.
Some surface corrosion on the damper body/main body thing--merely cosmetic.
One side had the set screw strip when I was replacing the coils, I retapped it, but then discovered that M10 set screws are not readily available, I replaced it with an M10 socket cap bolt. It ain't pretty, but it keeps things in place.

One has a little bit more fading in the anodizing, so it's less red.

 

Any more info on the Bilstein shocks?

 

The pictures aren't showing up. Or at least I can't open them

 

I put them on about 8,000 miles ago, so not very old. I try to keep them clean around the seal and on the shaft regularly. To clarify, they're non-reservoir models... Emulsion style. I bought them through AllPro for $100 a pop, looking to get $100 + shipping.

I'm planning on pulling them off the truck today, so I'll have better pictures when that happens.

 

Gotcha, wouldn't have any problems mounting them on basically stock mounts with timbren bumps would I? I don't think I'd be bottoming them out

 

I don't think you'd have any problems, when I did the shock mounts I kept their locations pretty similar to the same, so I would guess you wouldn't have a problem fitting them. IIRC they sit about 50-60% into their travel, I'd guess you'll be fine. I think when Boxrocket did his shock relocation he used his original OME shocks which were ~9.5-10" travel.

I used different bushings than stock, I swapped the bushings around to work with 1/2" bolts.

 

I'll take a peek through you're build and check.

Well pending pics I think I'll take them. Any chance they could fit in a suitcase? I'll be in Colorado Springs next weekend

 

According to the specs they're just shy of 26" long... so maybe! I'll shoot you some pics when I yank 'em out.
