    Always valve it for worst case like Barstow or lucern. Then it will be good to go everywhere. If you valve it for sand you will get your ass kicked on the hard packed whoops. Also if you valve for jumping your a dumbass ha that will be a side product of proper valving

    Yep side footage. Just go any where on the barstow course. Just not main, the whole are huge and unless you plan on racing don't valve it for that.


    Also if any one is interested I got some really fucking good flapper disk for $3.58 a piece (minimum order of 10) pm me for details it's a new company in orange county

    Engage Offroad long travel front and rear with some fat tires.
    x2...

    it's that rear bucking that can mess you up real good, regardless of what front end you are running...

    bottom line, as said before, different strokes for different folks...

    granted, there seems to be some very passionate opinions here and there as to which company line is more bang for the buck, so really take a look at what you want for yourself...

    Hassim races his truck in the Mexican Baja series Essor with the same production kit that is on my truck and other first gen trucks...

    i have had my kit now for a lil over 3 years with no issues to the kit... i have broken all kind of stock parts but that just comes with hucking the truck too much...

    now that im getting older and my health is deteriorating, i am a lot more cautious, but i still take the truck out to the desert regularly to have some fun...

    i don't drive the truck like im trying to win a race, so maybe my experience is different than others here...

    although im not one to delve in drama as i deal with enough prissy bitches in my profession, but damn, i miss the old yota days when we all just went out to wheel, drama free...

    at least, that's what i liked about TW when i first joined...

    maybe im just getting too damn old to keep up with the shit talking anymore...

    :D

    I get them slightly cheaper then that. I was a little skeptical at first when I bought them but they have out lasted a dewalt cuttoff.

    I have learned to buy everything in bulk. It saves me a ton of money in the long run.

    Maybe some guys like having their ass in the air :)

    Even with full lt i dont drive like trophy truck cuz at the end of the day i need to get home... And ive broken stock parts too many times nd parts/gas is expensive. i also dont try for big air because bolts fly off, metal tweaks and no cage lol :)

    I still need to get my shocks valved.... Its been 2 years. Funny how we drop big money and get lazy on the most important part.

    I know how to fix all this S@#t talkin... good food, some drinks, and some fun in the DEZERT. Mike said it right.

    Matt Mobbs.... really

    Mark and Mike pretty much introduced me to the game..

    I did an ass load of research for what I wanted for me.

    Buy what you like and don't put up a board that starts with "which (whatever) is best"

    Do a search you will find it.

    or go to a run and go for a ride in a truck that has what you want. IE: LT, Mid travel, 50t, Deavers, Kings, Foxes, what ever floats ur boat.

    ask what ever questions you about the kits out there.

    All LT kits are custom. There all fabbed by hand after being cut in a cnc machine. So if someone tells you ur getting a custom kit dont belive the hype.

    the bottom line is "Having FFFFFUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNN"
