Long Travel BS Thread

How would you check them or even tighten them because it would make sense that they got mad messed up after slamming on the side of the truck lol

 

honestly they are pretty cheap id just replace them to be sure... im absolutely confident you messed them up in that situation.. btw glad you are ok.. that sucks for sure

 

Glad you are ok! That looks like a solid flop.

 

Ain’t nothin like a Tacoma man haha! 5 people in the car, no bruises, 50+ mph, no frame damage, and I only had to un hydro lock the engine and get a door and some flares (which were already gonna go on!) moral of the story for me was not to be an idiot and overestimate mid travel in tight areas haha! Thanks for the thoughts!

 

Your airbags all went off? Is a shop doing work to it or no?

 

I'd check the control arm bushings and ball joints too.

Glad everyone is ok.

 

Do you have a skid plate?
If so
Take it off and go see if you can still make the sound.

My skid made that sound after messing my front end up

 

Anyone know of a decent 30" combo light bar under / near $200? Budget for lights isn't baller level. $ went into better things.

 

XLT???

 

XLMonies lol

 

Did you understand that that the grease that came with your kit was intended for lubing the bushings and sleeves themselves during initial installation IE: assembly lube ?

 

Very aware, also know how to read and follow directions. But still getting a squeak from them and also expecting they will need greased in the future like the directions said. Thanks though, great recommendation.

 

My lsk uppers came pressed in with the delrin bushings already installed, I was so stoked I didn’t have to deal with the grease and pressing in the bushings lol

 

Self lubricating lol, and they are in there kinda tight

 

Speaking of XLT kits


Who is running one still now that the Dutchman sold his rig?

And if so
Do you guys have any pictures when you were chopping off your shock towers to install the hoops?

 

I see nothing has changed here... only forum in the world that 80% of the posts are about long travel squeaking.

 

Didn’t realize he sold although he had been back and forth about letting it go. Maybe I will get to see it down in southern az now.

 

Are you moving down there?
