Anthony's 99 Tacoma

Thanks Steven, do you go to PCC?
Yeah id do it if your gonna get them cheap , added dampening helps and keeps shocks cooler. I went out last weekend and i can push the truck harder, but my rear is now really lacking, front end is perfect.

 

Hey Anthony-

Did you have to remove your bumper with you removed your bed?

I'm going to be running 10" Fox shocks and I'm curious what you think about this set up? I think the 10" Fox shocks are two inches shorter than yours as far as extension. I'm wondering if this might be to high? I'm going to be using the same lower mounts as this truck and not as low as yours.

 

Yeah, I do. I actually graduate from PCC's x-ray program this weekend. Are you over there too?

 

No i didnt, and that looks good, setup looks fine you want a little more uptravel than downtravel.

Oh ok cool, yeah i do not in summer though

 

I agree on the up travel but the shock looks like it's almost at full extension & doesn't have much room for down travel.

 

It will still extend off the travel and droop from shackle combined.

 

Hey Anthony, ride height are your shocks sitting at? What's your up and down travel?

 

Lol Sorry i forgot to reply. About 6" of travel at ride hieght. And about 5" about inches of down travel.

 

Updatesss....... 40" Led bar on top. And Going to have hopefully some new small upgrades . Including new hardware as my spindle bolts broke driving on the street.

 

dude, come on, better pictures of bar!! looks good though. what bolts broke exactly?

 

lol sorry, this one... haha
Sheared in half probably of age and abuse.

 

that couldve been bad if you were flying down the desert. hope you changed both sides out.

 

Sweet looking rig man! How does the LT front with mid travel rear perform?

 

His rear MT performs better than most rear LTs out there. Days and hours of revalving and tuning has perfected his set up.

 

Exactly What Blackhawke said. Smooth in the little stuff, faster i go the smoother it gets. A little rough in the major stuff.

 

Hmm, i'll have to hit you up when I build my rear. I was thinking of going with Solo motorsports WIY shock hoop kit... what do you think are the advantages/disadvantages of this location over yours?

 

how is there room outside of the frame rails for shocks on a 1st gen?

 

Im pretty sure someone asked that awhile ago and its cause its mis labeled on the website and is actually for 2 gens

 

the picture is definitely not a 2nd gen

 

There's room...
