Long Travel BS Thread

I was thinking build something like the old inner liner so it doesn't suck as much stuff from the intake tube that runs along the core support - probably going to use this kind of stuff and some rivnuts / grommets

Yeah that's what I'm thinking as well, just cut off a 1/2 on the tie rod, I do remember reading somewhere that the camburg steering link was a hair long. I've got all the OEM parts for cam bolts in my Amazon cart now, $150ish for all 4 cams. So that doesn't hurt to much. Will hit up dude in that Camelback Toyota thread and see what he can do for me, and wait a few weeks to see if the GB goes anywhere.

I'm like 90% sure I haven't twisted the frame yet on my truck lol. I checked all the welds on everything I could reach/see and don't see any OEM welds cracked or misshapen, and can still fit my hand through the engine/steering rack so I didn't tweak THIS truck like the last lol.



Yeah I went from 7 degrees of castor and was just barely rubbing the body mount at full lock (and pulled the trigger on some new body mounts a week ago) and now they put me at like 4 degrees and I can only turn about halfway to full lock before the wheel pretty much just wants to stop. Gotta get back to that higher castor or just completely cut my cab/body mount/fiberglass away a couple inches.


In retrospect I should probably just start cutting anyways because 35s+full stuff will need it anyways.

Hmmmmm.

 

Not really it's kinda a pain lol.

 

Been looking at a Donaldson but I haven’t gave it try yet. Once I chop the front off for the cage then I’ll give it a try. I’m still focused on the rear now.

 

+3.5 kit? How much?

 

did you custom tune your shocks after installing that kit? the rear will need some tuning for sure.

 

Pretty sure he’s selling a rear kit

 

Having some fun in the dunes.

 

What kind of changes did you make for staying OEM and not sucking in dirt/dust? I’m not running inner fenders so everything gets tossed up there.

 

When I had a first gen I closed the side entrance and cut a hole in the front of the box. I also made a shield to prevent water and dirt from entering

 

I hacked up my old liner for some protection. I added this because it was so dirty.

I miss seeing pics of that first gen

 

Get a set of turn plates. Doesn’t change the process but it speeds it up. Especially if you get ones that lock at 20 degrees

 

one step closer

 

Was cool watching your truck shred for a bit on Sat.

 

Hooe you got an updated kit,i saw someone installing one had to shorten the upper arm alot.

 

They wouldn’t sell me any since I’m not running there kit. Kind of a dick move

 

Call from another number, change your voice and tell them you are? j/k

Why not get more from ol' Solo?

 

yea he sent both of us new arms and took back the old ones.

 

thats TC not surprised
