Long Travel BS Thread

I have a fix it ticket that proves you wrong.... Oklahoma doesnt have a mud flap law but I got a fix it ticket and the Judge said fix it or pay a fine, didnt matter the state of registration.

Just like I know several Arizona trucks that have come across and got tint fix-it tickets.

 

No person shall operate any motor vehicle having three or
more wheels, any trailer, or semitrailer unless equipped with
fenders, covers, or devices, including flaps or splash aprons, or
unless the body of the vehicle or attachments thereto afford adequate
protection to effectively minimize the spray or splash of water or
mud to the rear of the vehicle and all such equipment or such body or
attachments thereto shall be at least as wide as the tire tread.
This section does not apply to those vehicles exempt from
registration, trailers and semitrailers having an unladen weight of
under 1,500 pounds, or any vehicles manufactured and first registered
prior to January 1, 1971, having an unladen weight of under 1,500
pounds.

Such a sick bedcage...check out those shackles too.....

 

I'll have 8k just in parts, solo quoted me 20k to link the rear and I about shit my pants. That was including a full floater that's 6k but still.

 

So I should quadruple my rates, while simultaneously giving myself a reach around. Look, Ma. I finally made it.

 

You should not do this haha

 

This is not correct.

 

Yup. When I moved to Co from Cali I tossed the flaps. But the roads out here are very corse and we go though windshields like it's cool. Oh yeah another thing about Co. Semi's drive in the fast lane. Not like Cali.

 

I agree with this statement.

 

Finished. Minus limit straps and alignment.

 

Oh you'll never be "finished" lol, it looks sweet tho

 

Great job! Get those limit straps on and go do a shakedown run. Solo Motorsports FTW!

 

Mine is way worse and CHP haven't issued me a ticket yet, got a speeding ticket a few weeks back and tint fix it ticket but nothing was said about needing mud flaps. I've got glass but my tires still stick out a bit.

Having said that I'll probably get one while I'm out this weekend.....

 

Very true. I have a feeling that the rearend is going to be twice as bad.....took it for a slow drive out front of the house. Tires squeeled a little from the crazy angles and veered all over the road anything over 5mph. Have to do some adjustments before I can even drive it to the alignment shop.

 

Truck looks good, you shouldve heard me driving to the alignment shop when I first bought my truck and stripped it down and reinstalled the arms and new coilovers, it sounded like I had a flat or was burning out the whole way there, luckily the alignment shop was close

 

Im debating between adding bypasses up front or upgrading to 35" tires. Im worried that my angry 3RZ 4cycl is going to be a complete dog with 35s even with the new gears. The 5.29 gears helped out my acceleration a lot and 35" tires will take all of that acceleration away.

So 10" bypasses or 35" tires?

 

with 5.29s id consider going to 35s...... I loved my 33s and 488s, which should be about the same as 35s and 529s.....

but id honestly do motor/tranny mounts first if you haven't.
that upgrade gave me loads of more power believe it or not...

 

Bypasses
