Long Travel BS Thread

Fucking decisions, I'll need to get different rod ends and misalignments and probably do a rebuild while I'm at it.

 

It's not a race truck, you don't need 5 tubes. That being said, I'd do it. It's only money

 

People way overrate and glorify bypass tubes because the use them for actual tuning. They are only for piston position final tuning.

 

So what your saying is brand new 3 tubes is better

 

I'm saying it doesn't matter how many tubes you have

 

Ditto, shit most people can't tell the difference between adjustments

 

More tubes = more hoes.

Allow me to explain:

Race truck with lots of bypass tubes and lots of hoes:



Baja bug. No bypass tubes. No hoes.

 

I say go for it but inspect them throughly. For $2k they better be perfect. It's not a deal if you end up replacing one or both shock shafts. 3.0" shock shafts aren't cheap.

 

This seems to be a well thought out argument for more tubes. I say go with the 5 tubes.

 

id still take the bug.... add tubes = bitches

 

My buddy once said, "The worse about owning a bug is having to tell your parents you're gay."


Jk.

 

That's a true statement about the new bugs. Not so much with the old ones.

 

I like off road bugs. Just that saying always pops in my head.

 

they are pretty cool i think.
i really only like them when they are fully built though, because you dont see it often.

 

Anyone have the stock intake box for a 95-98 3.4 they don't want?

 

I would recommend doing a 3.0 on a linked truck. If you want to shoot me a pm I can get you a cost on a new set of PR 3.0's. Those might be a decent deal, just depends on how much work they need.. Even a rebuild and revalve you're looking at 125-165$ each.. That's if it doesn't need any parts. Sometimes it's just easier to buy new.
And there is absolutely a such thing as too much shock. This case a 3.0 is not too much, I would definitely recommend doing a 3.0.

 

Only you pay chicks to... Oh wait different conversations Bwhaha.
