Long Travel BS Thread

One more

 

Wow, I thought that blue truck was a full back halved build. I never realized that tank was built to be mounted to the OE frame rails. I would love to have even a 30 gal tank...been looking at options that will fit up under the ass end like that.

 

So I can run a 10 inch shock using stock mounts or a 12 inch shock using the BAMF relocation. How do I know if I have the 12 or 10 inch shock? Looks like it's rebuild from scratch for me!

 

The shocks you have from your 6" lift kit are an odd dimension specifically made for the drop bracket kit. Those DB rear shocks are usually a 9" stroke shock with an odd sized longer body to reach the axle with the big lift blocks and AAL installed. So, when you lower the truck they will be completely wrong and rob up travel. You need to completely ditch those shocks and buy new regular 10" or 12" depending on wether you go with OE mounts or the BAMF kit you mentioned.

 

Ok guys so what type of dust lights u guys running in back? I had a blitzpro 4"?roundbthat was decent on rojo. Just curious what everyone is running for those that are

 

I'm just gonna be running some diffused flood pods with amber covers.

 

Baja Designs Squadron Sports with clip on yellow lens.

 

I have some pods that I could get Amber covers for I guess.

Those squadrons look pretty nice.

 

Yellow Baja Designs S2 flush mounted underneath my tailgate handle

 

I have this but not the clip on lenses.

 

I'm going with this. The ambers are on their own circuit so gonna wire them to a flasher.

I want one of these, Aaron has STL lights on his truck and they are insanely bright, come with flasher modules and controllers. They are pretty bad ass. this one is interior so you have to seal it to mount outside the truck

or just dust lights fully sealed already

ToughLight Dually knock off with an amber lens in place of the clear. 5th one up on the right lane. The blue one on the drivers side is the same but just with a blue lens instead of clear.



BTW, I have ZERO affiliation with this. I'm just passing on a good deal. These prices are to your door shipped. I bought the 32" one for my Dad for Xmas to put on his Jeep for helping to spot deer on the empty backroads of northern Minnesota in the summer when they're up there and it's pretty damn bright! Probably not the brightest most badass thing on the market but it's good enough that I feel with the pricing it was an absolute smoking deal.

Ruffstuff has some cool Sierra LED dual amber/white ones.

Those sealed ones look pretty cool! Ya Aaron's were stupid bright! Wonder how they hold up to the vibes of froading...

 

Uh oh

 

Saw an Engage built truck running one of the bars in the top link out at the night race 2 years ago. Really bright, and the take down white lights are great for work lights.

Personally I'd do led pods, the bar above, or check the RDC classifieds for the ad in the parts section for the rear led bars. Oval trailer lights are complete shit until you're 1 foot off the back bumper directly behind the vehicle. Even harbor freight halogen amber fog lights do a better job than trailer lights.

 

I have 2 6in bars on the back of my truck with some slag factory mounts. Work perfect
