Long Travel BS Thread

yeah thats who im talking about.

and im just going off what other people are saying, but theres alot of shit flying around, so i should stop saying stuff that i dont know is a fact.. lol my bad.

i think the for sale thread for it said 10k.

 

how can you call the rear mid travel and the front long travel when the rear has more travel?

if you ask me anything under 16-17" is considered mid travel . and that truck is one of the most bad ass single cabs around. wish i had the cash id buy !

this is what i saw and was going off of not trying to offend anyone here
i guess its not judgement sorry for starting problems

it is one beautiful truck though

 

i had a question, why would someone choose spindles and not a coil over lift? what are the pros and cons? i'm very close to getting spindles, but i just wanna make sure if it's the right thing

 

if your 4x4 you can't run a spindle lift

 

sorry, that was my last truck. mine is a pre runner now.

 

Spindles are awesome get them!

 

^Lol thats an amazing pro for getting spindles. It would be better to ask this in the regular suspension threads though

 

Hey, I'm just advocating spindles

 

x2

 

It has no bed cage. It has TC's rear hoops that go under the stock fenders/bed. That's a mid travel to me.

Maybe a bit more travel than not having the hoops but it's absolutely nothing like my truck and I wouldn't qualify it as a "Long Travel" rear.

And, he was asking 17.5k to start. AND it's an automatic... AND that truck was beat to shit. I've seen the videos.



I really don't understand how someone could comb through my entire build thread and still say that 25k is overpriced.

In general:
I think some people are getting "overpriced" mixed up with "I can't afford it"

Just because you can't afford it doesn't mean it's overpriced.

If you can't afford it, then don't buy it.

 

I don't have a trd. Should I get billies when i buy the spindles or does it matter? I can't spend too much. So should I get springs, billies or leafs when I get the spindles?

 

what are you trying to accomplish with these spindles? why did you start looking into them in the first place? what are your overall plans for the front and rear of the truck? what are you looking to accomplish to the vehicle over the next month? 3 months? 6 months? year?...

i dont know if this is how you guys look at it... but that is how ive done every build ive started on... i look at my overall goals, and will the parts im purchasing now move me closer to those overall goals...

no point in purchasing spindles for a truck you plan on eventually slamming a front solid axle under... you know what i mean... think it all the way through... write it down... check it off as you do it... this method saves thousands and thousands of dollars... i promise.

 

its not overpriced, it would be like buying a 18k truck and only putting 7k into! for what tha truck is and for what someone is getting out of it, its way underpriced! and yes thats just an opinion!

and if u cant afford it then u CANT buy it

 

I know what you mean. I plan to just keep it. I want a smoother ride than the spacer that I have. That's pretty much. I go to Tahoe a lot so it needs to be durable in the snow. This is also my daily driver.

 

a spindle wont smooth out the ride any. it will just lift the front of your truck and make it look like every other retard bro truck on the road. you want a more plush ride look into tunable coilovers. you want a gnar ass danky dank front lift... spindles all the way.

 

but getting spindles and getting rid of his spacer lift will make it smoother
