Long Travel BS Thread

That's the only thing I could logically think of that would cause interference with the bump stop mount....or maybe DKs secondary calls for a goofy tube clocking and that's where the interference comes from?

 

I think it would depend on the design of the TC LCA and DK LCA. His lower shock mount isn't installed yet

 

If that's the case then your best off building an upper shock hoop around your setup. No point in spending the money for a prefabbed hoop if you're gonna need to break everything down and cycle/layout everything.

If that doesn't sound doable then chop the bump mount off and tune your bump zone on the bypasses

 

How does that...

 

Dang you fell for the oldest trick in the book. The "send 'em fake instructions so he starts cutting a bunch of crazy stuff off the truck" joke.

 

@erok81 Honestly, kudos for being the first to install the kit. You're Christopher Columbus'ing the shit out of that kit

 

what kit are you running?

 

Away from the axle

 

Are you sure? Pretty sure they should be larger on the axle side to ensure the axle clears the coilovers at full bump. Make sure to cycle it all.

 

Im installing a 2'' long travel kit from TC, I want the smallest size bulge of fenders possible, will the 2'' mcneil fenders suffice? or is 4'' more appropriate? Couldn't find the answer to this question anywhere... My current set of wheels has just under 5'' backspacing.

 

Anyone here have one of the solo kits? Is it better than the TC?

Also does anyone know how wide these kits are? It's not showing it on the site
I assume XLT is +3.5, LT is +2, and MT is stock. Not quite sure though

 

Add some. XLT is 4.5 over stock and LT is 3.5

 

MT is their +2

LT is +3.5

XLT is +4.5

This is the Solo +2

 

Damn that's nice, do you know the travel #s?

 

4WD will do 11.5" , you have to add some 1/4" spacers between the OE BJ adapter and the spindle to give the CV clearance to the LCA. 2WD will pull more travel, my cv's are the limiting factor by a long shot.

BTW - the kit doesn't not come in that color, I had it pc'd.

 

If you were going to do it over would you get the same kit?

 

Yup, it's beefy as hell. The only thing I would do different would be to get the Delrin bushings they offer for the LCA's. I'm going to swap mine out soon.

 

@erok81
That bypass hoop doesn't look like it interferes? Add a hydro


How much for your old bumps?

 

Probably because you need more information than that. I'm pretty sure most LT kits require 4.75" BS or less, depending on your tire size/width, rim width. I would recommend the 4" anyways just because the 2" probably wont be enough with 33s or larger and a +2 LT kit

 

Those look good
