Long Travel BS Thread

for now finish the cage, run those foa 2.5 14/s down to some tc axle shock mounts. yea i know i need shackles, leafs etc to get the most travel but little by little right?

 

Little by little is the way to go. Or you could go ape shit with a saw and cut your truck in half like I did. I don't suggest this lol.

 

^^ nor do I. Regret it to this day

 

Lol. At times, ill see a stock version of my truck driving around and think "what the fuck have i done " lol.

 

Yea I think I'm keep my bed

 

keep the bed kill the core support

 

Keep my bed and link....

 

But no ball joints

 

Lol this thought many times....then I drive it and feel better

 

solos kit with spindle for $4k and add used coilovers. $4500.

 

4wd Plus everything is brand spanking new I'd offer him 4K flat if I was a first gen 4wd owner

Plus you don't add a shit ton of scrub like the solo spindles do.

 

meh, id be ok with a lower bj. and how do you attach that lower uni to a stock spindle?

 

What is so bad about extra scrub radius? Only big issue I can see is it would be harder for me to turn in the rocks when rock crawling when I have my front locker engaged, but most of you guys are 2wd and go fast so that wouldn't be a problem.

 

Scrub sucks at speed to its gonna want to pull the wheel out of your hands which isn't good when your romping through the nasty shit. Got a buddy that raced a yota with a decent amount of scrub ended up with blisters though the gloves lol

 

I see. Could you just run wheels with a smaller backspacing to help pull it back in a little. Assuming you can fit them, I guess.

 

Yeah if you can fit em

 

Speaking of backspacing. I want more backspacing than I currently do with my Methods (4.5). Anyone have a recommendation for a good looking 16" wheel with more backspacing?

 

OEM wheels? haha They have like 5.25 or 5.5" of BS.

 

Anybody see this yet? Looks like a fun trip!
