3Pooches version 3.5

Mad Max is back!

 

Think an Outback could do that?

 

Ironman 4x4 just released a lift kit for RAV-4. Adding that toy list of possibilities.

 

Yes, it’s exactly what it was built for

 

Do you have a rav4 at your disposal?

 

Is this a haiku?

 

In all seriousness, I've watched the Outback Wilderness do some impressive wheeling for a wagon. The limiting factor is suspension travel. I'm on the hunt for a long travel kit.

 

So I did not write the original post like that. Must be a TW April Fools thing going on.

 

That, it is.

 

Shannon’s truck isn’t finished yet but we gave it a little test run today. The bp51’s are a good improvement. You can feel the bypass in them when you are just compressing them off the truck. The have a very soft area at full extension and stiffen up considerably once they hit half compressed. Shannon hit some bumps at decent speed and the truck feels much more compliant, soaking up the harsh stuff while still letting you know it was a hard hit. I think the only draw back is the inability to adjust the preload once mounted. Which is a considerably inconvenient.

 

Ready to roost.

Could you adjust the Bilsteins on the truck?

 

Looking good!

 

No, they aren’t coilovers. They have a snap ring that seats in 3 different positions. Pick your position and assemble

 

Good point.

 

Do we start counting days, yet?

 

Yes

 

Okay 12 more days.
