Long Travel BS Thread

Did the guy on TTORA PM you back yet?

i know your in a rush and everything..but i think you just gonna have to be a bit more patient if you want it to work out. Might as well tell the shop that has your rig to just push it aside for a week or so and get stuff sorted out. No need to make a rush decision

 

this fj is sick....really dig the wheel and tire combo

 

nope he didnt...

yeah i know you are right, i will be furious if i miss glamis though.
the shop that currently has my rig isnt doing anything with the 4wd, he is just doing my rear LT.
i have a different shop assembling the axels and i will put them in myself. the shop that has my axles are already on hold...

im just trying to figure it out as soon as possible...

 

Speaking of sick FJ's... SDHQ, WHERE'S SOME PICTURES OF THAT LS MONSTER!!!!!????

 

LOL, it's so close! We had to send the Computer back to Turnkey for a few adjustments, It's starting up as soon as it's back!

 

mise well tease us.....

 

If it's this weekend..might as well cut your losses.

It'll work out. Just might not be this week or even next.

 

its the weekend of the 25th.
so its still a major possibility

 

Oh you have lots of time then.

Shit'll buff out.

 

Cody, paging Dr. 4runnercaged.....info stat


I called ORS right after I read that last post.....he just now called me back (I left a message asking about it and that I know a another person or two that wants it as well)....yes they still make it!!!! Two versions a complete kit with warm lockouts or no lockouts.

Warn lockouts $1117.00
(Complete kit)


Without lockouts $926.00
Aisin lockouts $520.00

Aisin is more of a oem Yota part, but he said the warn is most popular

Both kits do not come with cv boots. Just re use tundee ones and the bates upper/or tundra stock boot if u so choose.

The only difference from the link I posted is the shafts are now Toyota remans.

He said should have kits in stock and if not, it could be put together in a few days.

I am highly considering this down the road.

OFFROAD SOLUTIONS (620)390-3198

A write up it that I posted above

U know Cody I believe u can just take the axle shaft out from the cvs and use the ends in spindle/diff to get truck driving.

 

i tried calling the number you provided and it is disconnected. did you mean 620 390 9138? just tried calling and nothing.
thank you so much for all the help. its much appreciated.
i hope they can just sell me the axle shaft. thats all i need..

not too much time..... everything takes forever when custom is needed....

yes i can, but i must have 4wd for what i do.

 

Damn. Expensive for manual hubs.

 

yeah thats insane.
i already have manual hubs though. the issue is the outer cv joint has different splines than the tundy shaft so i cant put them together.
the hubs you listed are those for a tacoma but accept tundy axles??

 

Yup that's the number, I got it off their website contact info. He called me back from same number too. Weird.

 

Hmmm, maybe he can sell just part of it, or steer ya in right direction

But ya it's pricey. Could be worth it in the long run if ur a daily driver.

 

Yep...try parking next to it every day with mid travel

Really like Gabes FJ though. I'm working on another FJ right now doing the same setup but with 4WD. Gabe's is a 2WD with rear locker.

 

dang ok... guess ill just try occasionaly..

either way i need to do it..... lol
now i just need to talk to the dam guy

 

I told him u were in the middle of the build and needed a solution to this and that I may be calling him for a kit....call and leave a message like u are ready to by a kit, when he calls back then ask question about hubs and spline count. If he uses warn, Aisin, and one other, maybe those companies have the hubs only available

 

I figure this is as good a place as any to ask.

What are you guys doing as far as roof mounts for LED light bars? My ability to resist getting one is wearing out and I haven't found much as far as mounting them goes.
