I want duh long travel!

 

@anthony250 i wouldn't count on that spare being in the bed, after the first run through some whoops... hah

 

Make sure your warranty is up first

 

Finished up my bedsides today

 

How about a shot of the light bar mounted

 

Looking good man!!!

 

Well I can finally halfway fit into this thread now Well once I get the shocks installed I guess.

 

No, you just have a droopy ass.

How did you align the axle?

 

Theres some nudes of it on the last page of my build thread

Thanks man!!

 

With a tape measure

And it stuffs well too! The axle isn't even on the frame yet, but is close.


There is a hole in the frame that we measure off of for the front hanger. We tacked on the hangers according to the measurements DMZ gave us and hung the leafs, then measured the width of the leaf pack at the front hanger and at the shackle, they measured the same at 46" so we sat the spring perches on the leaf pack and spread it out to 46" at the bottom and them centered it and triple checked it all and tacked the perches in place.

It drove home great. Tracked really straight and everything felt fine.

 

Chinese bars ftw

I am about to pull the trigger on some 17" KMC Enduro beadlocks, I read on another thread you need 1" spacers to clear the calipers? Any input or experiences with this?

Camburg states 4.75" BS on their LT which I am running, and the wheels have that BS but if they don't fit then I would rather not buy 'em.

 

so i have 2 2.5" FOA bump stops and both are slightly leaky/ dont want to decompress. I'm ordering rebuild kits, but I'm not sure A) how to remove the cap, it has two holes as if a wrench fits in the top but not sure where to get this kind of tool, and B) does anyone know why they would be stuck in the down position? simply hydrolocked? Trying to go into the rebuild with as few unanswered questions as possible so it goes nice and smoothly

 

Get in touch with Tyler TC yota he is up in north county and should be able to give you a hand if you need it.

 

2.5 bump stops?? Thats huge.

 

Do they still have pressure? If they do, who knows what is binding until you tear them down. Could be clogged ports in the piston?

 

Damnit! I had no idea HF sold those. I had to go to a local shop and use theirs to get that cap off.

 

You can also make your own in about five minutes from a couple bolts and a piece of flat stock.
