Long Travel BS Thread

Removing that many leafs it sounds like you have the wrong leaf pack to begin with. But call deaver and get their suggestion based on what you're running. Or throw weight in the bed so they work properly.

 

Anyone running headers with total chaos shock tower gussets?
If so, whatchu got?

 

I thought TRAC wasn't around anymore

 

yeeee keep it a SECRET

 

I'm running the LCE header on my 2TR, and I have TC coil bucket gussets.

 

I guess I shoulda specified 1gr-fe, trying to see what my options are.

 

Coil bucket gussets shouldn't have any effect on what headers you can run. I don't know who all makes 1GR headers, but URD is the one I know of.

 

The URD equal length headers specifically state they can't be used with Coil bucket Gussets. I've heard a couple guys have made them fit with solid motor mounts and maybe some gusset notching. I've been contemplating running those as well. All other headers should fit just fine. I think the Equal lengths just have to much bulge right where the gussets are and engine bouncing causes them to hit the gussets.

 

You can run everything but urd’s, with no issues. You can even run urd’s but it involves a little more work

 

URD headers, TC coil bucket gussets and solid motor mounts and they work great!

 

Not exactly, I’m running URD equal length with Solo gussets, but with solid motor and trans mounts.
Swapped the DTFs out for DMZ mounts after all the fan clearance issues.

 

LS swap? so a trailer queen. going full race truck , nice.

 

Nope. Trying to stay carb legal if possible . Gotta find a 2015+ LS to throw in

 

Sold the wife on a full cage by saying my boy can have it when he's 16 and a full roll cage will make it the safest truck on the road

 

I thought it had to be from like model as well to do swap CA legal. I don't know much about it. never done research on it. But sounds awesome.

 

Truck motor has to go in a truck etc.

 

looking at BAR's rules it has to be from same GVWR so if Tacoma's are light duty trucks then it has to come from a light duty truck, cant come from a heavy or med duty, ect, ect, must come from same duty and class.
also same yr or newer. other then that,
a few other things like trans will have to match engine no brainier stuff.
Sounds easy on paper but I have heard its a pain in the ass.

 

I am running e30hd its not that stiff. Yes i had to revalve shocks pretty soft. But it works well and needs some weight. How do you have them set up ?

 

Definitely a lot easier to register in a state other than Commifornia

 

What do y’all think about these alignment numbers. Specifically the bottom ones I’m surprised I was able to actually get the toe within 1/8” before with a tape measure.
