Long Travel BS Thread

'82, I used to have a list but I wanna say 76-85 but verify that with others here first

 

How much was it if you don't mind?

 

Depends how ya get it, straight from a junk yard its 100-300. I got mine with Currie 6x5.5 axles, Chevy brakes/rotors already tabbed for brakes and ruffstuff truss for 800

 

Thanks. Any specific years? Do their stock ones give lift? Or just their aftermarket ones? Noticed their aftermarket ones are a lot cheaper than ours as well

 

IIRC with the setup I'm going with between the SOS shackle flip and the 5" XJ shackles I'll pick up about 1.5" ride height. The shackles will add .75 as well as the flip. I will know for sure when I get everything on next month for sure.

 

Might consider selling mine. Semi floater, axles just need to be drilled for 6 on 5.5, complete with currie sportsman case and spooled 4.88 gearing. 1400$. Tabbed and trussed for 4 link.

 

You should keep that and sell it to me later haha

 

Yep drum brake shoes are adjusted so there is a slight drag on the drums with the axle in the air

 

Not sure about width but here is a list of vehicles that used a 9"

 

Think this will fit in my Tacoma?

 

Not with the blower pulley haha

 

Same problem...new mc helped but still having the 1/4 pedal problem


Air is what I'm thinking for me and you haha

 

Lol I'll make it work. I'll hide the 871 blower we have for it. That's what the supercharger hood is for right?

 

Fabbed housings have got so cheap now thanks to competition I really don't see a reason to use junkyard 9" housings any more.

 

Yea that's kinda where I'm at, now I'm debating full float or semi float?

 

I've looked a little bit, but where can I get a reliable 9" at about 69" WMS, trussed and ready for leafs with axles and ready to bolt up and for how much lol.

 

Currie. 4500+

 

:wallet slams shut:

 

I'm in mine 1900 with a Detroit locker if that makes you feel better

 

Haha yea, I'm gonna stick with stock trussed axle for now, when I blow that one up I'll look in to a 9". Gotta build the truck and regear first.
