brian... it's southern california

Full droop/bump shot

 

oh damn, for the longest time i thought you two were the same person when i saw pics hahah nice trucks guys!

 

^ I know I told him before they are twins.

Zach read my sig below. Pretty much 33's

 

No thats jacked up in the air on the limit straps full droop. Not at ride height

Edit: By the way my coilovers are about 2 turns from full loose at all the other ride height pics I have

 

No not until I get the rear done and the front gusseted

i thought this truck was pretty sweet, never seen it before, it was shipped to romania, never heard of LT trucks over there

 

By the way Im pulling just over 13.5". I dont have bump stops yet so this is where the shock bottoms out without a spring so Ill bump it at 13.5 max

Full bump


Full droop

 

4" spindles?

 

No its on a jack. You can see the handle sticking out. Its fully drooped. Stock spindles

 

Im gonna ask a quick question! Let's say I have a 4x4 manual taco. And let's say I wanted the camburg race kit how would I go about making it 2 wheel drive? Just remove front diff and the front drive shaft? Or do they make an extension shaft for the manual to remove the transfer case?

 

When cycling the suspension remember to keep the bottom spring holder. Dont know the correct term for it but it will limit your travel.

 

Well your on the right path but first step would be to give all the 4wd parts to me

Yeah the lower spring cup or whatever. I know what you mean. My shock actually bottoms internally about 2mm from the spring cup. Which is why I need bumpstops even more.

Which brings a question. How much shock shaft from full bottom should be out when I set the bumps to bottom? I would think you want a little cushion from being right on the edge

 

anyone in Socal know where to pick up teflon spray locally?

 

try a bicycle shop. the two that i work at carry both wet and dry teflon lubes, both in a spray or drop bottle. you should be able to call and ask so you don't have to makie the drive.

 

I get Dupont dry teflon spray at Lowes

 

There's a bike shop by me that sells triflow.

 

yep, that's the stuff. all will have a wed lube and most will also have the dry. all good shops at least.
