Long Travel BS Thread

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh................. what did you do? I can't even tell the generation of that anymore is it s 1st? All I can say is have fun

 

Fastest iv been able to get the truck to go is 73ish down fence line at pismo and the whoops were almost flat that day and i had no fenders or interior or anything on my truck but cab and and two seats lol so if you were goin 90 thats impressive

 

$2900! How come I got the nice price?

 

Those are the exact same beams lol. Just bought them last night. Crossmember and pivots will be here soon I hope, same with cross over steering. Toss on the steering box, and coilovers and it's party time. Sounds easy right ?

 

Link pivots, and links for 2900?? I'll build you 2 sets for that price lol. I'd like to get a hold of a 2nd gen one of these days and go to town on it.

 

88 4x steering box, Giant motorsports swing steering pivots, and giant motorsports cross member. All for 1st gen chassis.

 

Yeah I wish I would have just built them myself and invested in the tools to do it with the money I saved. I already have a notcher, bender and welder. Buy some sleeves, threaded bungs and shred some plate, how hard can it be?

 

I want twin traction beams haha

 

It's a piece of cake. Cycle cycle cycle, then, burn it all in.

 

woo frame is at the shop getting bent back into shape. found a rack at the junkyard and ordered new lights cheap off Amazon. gettin her back together!

long shot but does anyone have 00-06 tundra front fenders they want to get rid of?

 

The greatest home built truck already exists and I think you'd be hard pressed to build a single cab that would run with Jono.



EDIT - That said, I love the short bed Tundras SDHQ is building and I wish I could sell everything I own to buy one.

 

So I decided to go Glamis instead of Pismo, I'm leaving next friday morning. Who else going?

 

Anyone here ever use an online laser cutting service?

Links / recommendations would be appreciated. As well as general ball park price.

 

Cr250jumper and I will be out there along with Eric and I think Ryan. Manwithoutaplan

 

what are you getting cut, and how precise? I own a CNC plasma table.

 

for dual rates, how much of a factor is spring length. my 10s have 6" over 16" i was looking at maybe doing something like 12" on top but would i need to get a lower spring rate?

 

When are you guys leaving?

 

Think we are headed out there Wednesday. Well jd and i are.

 

Nice I'll be camping with some friends at sand flats by vendor row. I'll take my truck and maybe my quad, also my friends are taking 3 motorhomes rzrs and some bikes and quads
