Long Travel BS Thread

I forgot to mention that TC and Camburg do not provide CV boots or clamps with their kits either.

They provide, just like us, the extended axle shaft itself.

I offer mounts for 2.5"×12" remote resi capable of a lot of up travel.
Also fits 14" travel for some setups. Reasonable price and TW member discount.

Hahaha!

Everything is done. Nothing to see here.

I just wanted to give our side when there was a lot of bashing on us.

 

Damn son thats epic...took my cv guy about an hour. Granted I just got the 3.5 TC axles so nothing crazy.

 

i used the pipe method on mine, was quite the pain but came free after i hit my breaking point and rage blacked out.

 

Tried the pipe method and the concrete was getting damaged so opted out to find a better method. Ended up using a piece of aluminum and a hammer. Wasn't too bad after the first one, just had to work some magic lining everything up.

 

Hey man. Glad you were able to air your side of the story. I am choosing to no longer add any more fuel to this fire over tacomaworld forums. If you and I need to go have a sit down after work or something and discuss things lemme know. I no longer have any interest in dealing with you personally when working with Baja kits to any degree. I apologize my thoughts and concerns mentioned here are emotional and offended you.
You'll no longer need to deal with me as I have been directed to go through Bruno for any more issues or needs regarding my kit.

Hope you have a great day man!

 

i used an old rotor to bash the pipe in to on some cardboard over the driveway. Obliterated my snap rings though so that caused more anger when i had to source them.

 

All good.

You didn't offend me.

Just needed to give everyone our side of what happened.

We can definitely grab a beer or 2!

 

After beating and beating with the pipe method. Beating and beating with a hammer and punch. Putting 10klbs with a through hole ram, we decided to just cut. 55 tons to push that fucker out!

 

that when Blake called me and said "i think you were lying to me how easy this was, bro"?

 

Probably.

 

Sounds like you did lie if he thought you meant it was easy, considering you rage blacked out

 

in my defense, it was the end of the day after 112* 12 hours day working on my POS.

 

Wrong. The minivan is not a POS

 

I just paid the extra money to have dirt king ship me fully assembled axles and I send my stock ones back as a core. Made install real easy to just pop the old ones out and new ones in.

 

How much is this option?
I would pretty much pay any price to never have to go through the nightmare that is building LT CVs. So fucking over it

 

I need to see if I can get mine apart. Guy that did it basically got everything off the outer end that he could around the clip, but there's still part of the joint attached. So I have 1 spare shaft and then another that potentially can be salvaged if I can get the crap off of it. I said F it a couple months back and just ordered another set of shafts. So far the O'Reillys CV is holding up just fine.

 

I thought you have to use oem ?
