Long Travel BS Thread

Best practice is wear one of course. How many guys actually do every drive is probably <10%

 

Does anyone know the part number/specs for replacement heims in TC uppers?

 

It is literally in the products discussed below...heres the link

$57 FK Bearings WSSX16T Spherical Bearing with Teflon, 1" (1-3/8 Wide), 1 Pack

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073SVF23L
They have them at Kartek too. These are a 1 inch uniballs (inner ID is 1 inch) but the outer diameter is 2.125

Or do you have Heimed uppers?? and that is what you are looking for? If that is the case then they are FK-JMX12T This is a 3/4x3/4 right hand threaded heim

 

Yeah I think he's looking for those

 

this is what I was looking for, thank you!

TerraCrew: Where a "built to destroy" episode consists of guessing every shock size, travel numbers and shoutout companies who are "the homies". Instead of letting the owner openly talk about their truck without interrupting them

 

lol I guess they need a delegate from here to host episodes about Tacomas, Blake for buggies, and the Eisenhouers for ford / trophy truck stuff.

What's the minimum lift I can do on 3.5 LT? I've seen 2+ inches. Is that really the minimum? I frequently visit a couple parking garages so I'm concerned I may not fit if I lift too much.

 

You could set the coilovers to essentially stock height with light enough springs but it'll sacrifice up travel from ride height and kind of won't give you any benefit.

Most parking garages are plenty tall unless you've got a huge chase rack or something because full size trucks will usually fit in them too.

 

You can do 0” or even lower the truck with a 3.5 kit. All depends what spring rate and how much preload you run. That said, I know my truck is tall and I’m on big tires and haven’t had any issues with parking garages. Got to figure a lofted Tacoma with big tires is still probably shorter than a stock F350 or full size truck

Yeah my tacoma with 3.5" on 35's still sits at least 6 in shorter than my ram 2500.....but i guess it depends on the parking garage cause ones up here in seattle will be like 6'6" sometimes....

 

My truck is lifted probably 5” in the front with spindles and LT, and I think it’s right about 6’9” or so.
I’ve never had a problem — as also said above most full size trucks are about that height anyhow.

 

Is that 5" overall including tires or are you saying the 5" is suspension alone?

 

my truck on 33s and ~2in lift is nearly exact same height as my brother's bone stock 2nd gen Tundra
*maybe a lil shorter i haven't really payed attention in a while now that i think about it
