Fitting 35’s with minimal trimming NOW ADDING LONG TRAVEL AND 934 CV’s

I have a nitrogen bottle for rebuilds. But my buddy used to drive for total chaos and has built a few leaf spring race trucks and has been helping me a lot over the last few years. I haven’t been “tuning” out in the field. More like run it for a while, talk to him, send videos, bring shocks to his place with some beers and we revalve and send me back home. Think this is the 3rd valving for the front and second for the rear. But sent him this video and we have some plans to help compression up front a little. Perfect timing too since they’re all just about due for fresh oil

 

Sorry, no action shots. Preran the Vorra Yerington race in my truck then raced my class 9 car this weekend. Race was fun. Placed 2nd with a broken spindle ending our race on the last lap. Pre-run was good. I drove my buddies Tacoma with a TC +2 kit, single Fox coil over in the front and custom stock hacked springs with a 4WP shock. I was amazed at how well it did in the rough stuff compared to my truck with a bunch of expensive words. The difference was I could double his speed but was in for a rough, loud ride doing so. And, my 9-car is smoother in the rough too.

 

Sub'd. I see the usual suspects are in here as well.

 

Yeah you need a few pieces of the puzzle offered in here.

 

That's why I'm here.. gathering info.. per usual

 

Finally wrapped up!

 

God DAMN

 

That bumper looks great, too. Any details on how it was built? I mean I can see most of it, mostly curious how the winch ties in

 

Heres winch plate LOL, my buddy snook a fast one on me with the plasma table when I wasn't paying attention..

 

@81Trekker these need boots so we can use them up in the rust belt.

 

Just straight .15c/.08r valving?

 

Yep. They’re bypasses so no need for any fancy flutter or ride plate stacks and what not.

 

Makes sense. Im thinking about setting my 12” smoothies at 15/8 with a flutter shim below the first big shim in the compression stack.

i got them used and haven’t taken them apart to measure yet, but they supposedly are at 8/15 right now

 

Ok see now we gotta talk I need to know about dis stuff man

 

LCA pivots getting burned in today, then the +2.25 goes on. I'm sure it's posted somewhere, but would someone mind refreshing me with some alignment numbers I should shoot for? As close to factory spec as possible?

 

With all of the shims forward of the LCA the relocation is supposed to push 1/4” forward from factory.

the LT kit is supposed to push the tire 7/8”forward itself as well.

 

7/8" for the LT kit

 

fixed.

 

That’s probably a good place to start
