Long Travel BS Thread

my system is working already.

 

Thanks for the tour! Sorry it was short lived

 

Anyone have the part# for the coilover spacers that offset it to one side?

 

The what?

 

If it's for king....

Under the bottom drop down menu there's a long list of sizes. You'd have to figure out the exact size you need though.

 

Should be the same uniball for fox right?

 

I would imagine the rod bearings are standard (and the spacers as well), but I've never so much as touched a fox shock before so I couldn't say for certain.

 

Lol, yeah... I'm like 10k in and the fuckers still on jack stands lol

 

That's what I figured. I plan to just remove the stock switch and extend the wires to some Carling switches in a Paranoid clock mount. No need for indicator LEDs. Thanks for the input.

 

Anyone else try the discount code for McNeil? Wasn't working for me - upper and lower case A in America lol

 

I got a thing.

 

Advanced Fiberglass is having 15% off. Better product.

 

But McNeil is the only one that makes a hood for my firsty

 

A guy in sd is trying to get rid of his glass hood. 98 to 00

 

It's a crap shoot:

buy from Advanced and risk not getting it, or buy McNeil and actually get your stuff. Unless you buy from McQueen, all off road fiberglass is crap anyways.

 

I have a glassworks scooped hood from my old 97 in Santa Barbara

 

McNeil screwed me every which way and the product is garbage. It's all resin and body filler with a thin layer of chopped mat layed on the inside. The inside lip of the bedsides doesn't allow for the bed rails to be reattached and the front part towards the cab is missing the entire section that bolts to the bed. Tabs were too short or completely missing on the front fenders. The tail lights kind of fit. Not to mention the packaging is awful, though they'll probably survive a trip to SD.
All of their molding screw ups are covered up with a tremendous amount of blue bondo, white spray paint and black paint undercoat.

Has Advanced been continuing it's old games under its new ownership?

 

Really... it was for the pre 01 clip right? I'm sticking with the 97 so I can get good headlights w/o getting retro fits plus I like the style. Did you use hood pins?

 

Baja Designs RTL?

 

Popped out the snap clips, dropped the uniballs and added a thin shim to space out the uniball inside the cup as you can see the movement.

I have been trying to diagnose and repair stupid steering feel and issues since I installed. This fix so far has felt better in the wheel and at higher freeway speeds than before.

Thanks again Bruno from BajaKits who shipped me the shims and told me about what to look for.
