Loco's Mid Travel Badassery Build-Totalled

I am running 14" 700# springs. I have also run 14" 600# springs but with the bumper i had way too much preload dialed in.

 

do you still need to preload the 700# springs to get the lift you want?

 

A little bit but not much. The 600# springs rode sooo nicely before i got the bumper. If you aren't installing a bumper i would run 600# or 650# in a 14".

 

I'm running 600s right now and they are fucking nice! I know that if I do add too much weight they'll have to be replaced but for now I love them!

 

I still have my 14" 600# springs sitting in the garage if you want them TacomFMS.

 

already have a brute force front with a 9k winch, plus full skids underneath... so im guessing 700# springs???? just not sure if I want to try to get the 16" ones or stick with the 14's.

 

Truck looks awesome with all the new updates! How are the expos holding up with the shackle flip?

 

Justin, go with the 700's. Just think that the 886's are 650ish...

 

14" 700# is what you need. Downsouth Motorsports sells them. Just make sure you specifically ask for the one with less windings. They have 2 versions and one will hit your uca under droop as Dave Eli found out for us.

 

Doing great. I wish i had done them first instead of the aal for what i do. They just have to have weight on them and they are smooth.

 

Sounds good, I love the expos! Have had mine for about 5 months now. Just wasn't sure if the shackle flip would wear them out or take some of the lift away.

 

thank you guys!!! now to decide if I want to pay the extra for kings or just to go fox or icon.

 

King is cheaper than Icon and Eibach...go to dsms webpage.

 

Do you not have coilovers yet?

 

nope i am just running ome up front currently.

i thought king was about $300 more?? i checked dsm and that is where i thought i say fox and icon about the same and king at about $300 higher? heck i dont know anymore now!

 

Everyone has coilovers

I think he just doesn't have adjustable coilovers yet...

Sorry i was only talking about the springs being cheaper. With king you can order them with 700# springs on there ready to go.

might wait till black Friday to save some bucks.

 

technicalities!

 

If you want to call the spring over shock stock crap a coilover then go ahead. A coilover is a real setup. Mr technically right.

 

yep that is what I am hoping for, or cyber Monday. bad thing is the fact I have no way to check deals at the house, no internet or smart phone! so Im not real sure how I am going to figure out how to jump on a deal if there is one out there....
