Long Travel BS Thread

Would be cool but pretty pricey. You can do a Chevy v8 swap less money and have more power.

 

Am I missing something I thought the fabtech dirtlogics were just a stock replacement coilover? Could be wrong though.

 

Question for the LT Guru's

I'm looking into new front suspension so this is what I've come down too so far...

All-Pro LT (Fox Shocks, Ext Axles) = 12" Travel

OR

Icon Ext. Travel Shocks & Total Chaos (UCA & LCA, stock width) with Bypass Shock added? = Not sure on Travel #'s

 

you dont need bypasses up front to begin with, learn to control your LT truck at low speeds and work up. When you feel comfortable going fast and have the need to be able to tune your front for different terrain, then invest in triples. Bump stops are really usefull if you like jumping

 

Okay, yea I understand what you're saying!

With the All-Pro Kit there is no secondary shock mount, and the Total Chaos (NON-LT Control Arms) I could possibly run one.

Does anyone know the travel numbers you get with the Icon Ext CO's (with Uniball uppers)?

 

Okay, so probably some where 11" to 11.5" of travel (max. you could get out of them)

And Thanks for the Diff Help this morning, bye bye Diff Drop Hello Budbuilts

 

Basically looking at similar setup to this if I don't go with the All-Pro LT

 

Straycat runs the same set up on here.

 

Isn't he LT tho? The pic I posted are stock length A-Arms, (Icon Uppers and TC Lowers)

 

nah, he runs stock length TC upper and lower control arms, except he has SAW coil overs, but Icon secondaries

 

Oh really, didn't know that!

Do you what kinda travel he's getting and how the ride is off road (only seen photos of his truck) ?

scroll down there are videos of him doing some passes

 

yeah, that tundra v8 set up is spendy and i was thinking the same thing about the fabtech shocks too...

 

the TC stock length lower arm is cool, but wayyyyyy too much $$$. for less than $1000 more you can get a LT kit

just saying...

 

That's what I'm going to do. TC stock length uppers and lowers. Fox 2.5 coilover and a bypass. I already got the coilovers spindles and ucas on. Then if I have enough money I may do bumps as well.

 

I just ordered my KINGS!!!

 

I agree but this way you can do it in pieces and still enjoy each little change. you can't with LT.

 

that will be pretty bitchin... SUA out back?

 

Yea. That's what I'm thinking. Maybe a simple bed cage and then decide on shocks. Or what I may do is just add some fox bumps in the rear. See how that hangs. Then if not SUA. Still undecided. I just want a bomb proof setup that wont be breaking on me all the time.
