British Columbia BS thread

No, I am running the Eibach Pro-Truck Stage 2 kit with 1" block in the rear. I would leave the front as is and put the Icon's on as option 1 and then have options if things change down the road.

 

Gotcha there.

 

You could go with airbags, I have PacBrake airbags on top of Old Man Emu Dakar HD's because of the weight I carry for work but lots of folks hauling trailers swear by airbags on the stock suspension. Big Country Customs put mine in.

 

I got the V Air, it's the model they recommend for RV's because of their bigger tire size

 

My RV is a C-Class E350 chassis, so the tires are close in size to the Tacoma. I also may have a problem buying tools

 

Ohhhhhh airbags. Man that has been recommended.

the only thing is that I’m lazy ish. I assume once I can’t park in the garage… bikes and a weight room will give birth. And therefore my rig will likely stay as one year round.

I wonder if airbags or suspension upgrades are any better for a solution with that in mind.

 

If you want to keep it level after you have removed the tent air bags might be the easiest way to go. With the canopy and awning on it how much did the rear end settle with that weight on it?

 

It’s perfectly level with the Cap and Awning mounted.

I get some sag once I trounce about 200lbs more onboard.

 

Airbags - playing at work today, the bottom of the bag rests in a cup rather than being fixed which allows for droop without tearing the bag.

 

I would love if you could set up airbags to level for a Roof Top Tent. I know Rivian can “self-level”.

That would be a scooby feature for sleeping in or on your truck.

 

You can buy a remote fill switch for the air bags to mount in the cab. It then runs off an air compressor - not quite self leveling but at least you don't have to get out of the cab to adjust ride height

 

totally… but! Can you run left and right independently. That would be the dream.

 

Sure can!

 

You need to just to accommodate uneven loads.

 

solid. No pun intended

 

I don’t mean to gloat… but… done.

 

Nice! Tofino?

 

Yep!! Good ID on that.

 

Well… got a RTT. (CVT Mt Washington). Allow me to say that the guys at Bend OR - CVT are incredibly awesome; easy going and good fun to hangout with.

They helped me get my
Fridge slide installed too. Which turned into a bit of an ordeal and they treated me like a friend. No wonder their users are so loyal.

Alas. Time for a Leaf Pack I think. It get saggy with the 200lb cap, 200lb tent and then fridge and gear. And god help it when the bike rack and family/dogs are on board. Lol

 

hey @Canadian Caber … any idea if Birkenhead is reservable etc. I looked on BC Parks and it’s either full forever or I wonder if you can drive-in and grab a spot without too much worry that it’s jammed.

just wondering.
