Long Travel BS Thread

Now time to decide how I wanna do the bed cage..

 

originally i had F55 then most recently F67 and now i have 50T

 

What length shocks? and what size?

 

yeah but your truck weighs alot more then matts acces cab 1st gen

 

What did you think about the F67's?

 

You think 550 would be too soft cause of the weight?

 

Not sure yet, gunna get the truck into the shop and try a couple different things.

 

they were good, but i need something with a lot more arch to them. hence the 50T

you won't want the 67's for your truck, especially if your going to run lift spindles up front

 

im not sure but im just saying if they are perfect for nelsons truck i would assume they are to soft for your truck

 

so whatchyu thinkin? a 50t?

And why wouldnt i want the 67?

 

i would think the 50t would be good for you rj unless your going to have alot of weight in the rear

 

I think it would be fine..

But what does everyone else think? Will the 550 be able to handle the weight?

 

damn it rj...call jeff and tell him exactly what you want..he will get your ride height perfect

 

haha alright, alright.

 

does the race kit run 8's 10's or 12's

 

generally speaking, the F67 pack was designed for 1st gens and old pick ups running the shackle over the frame. 2nd gens have an inverted shackle.

go with either one of the many kits out there: giant, defined, DMZ or get some 50T and run the shackle above the frame or offset or get a custom pack... which would prob be your best option

 

Im not getting the race kit anymore.. But im contemplating doing the 12's.. Going to do an engine cage either way.. But wont i have to get new coil buckets if i do the 12?

 

cut that pos bucket off..have an engine cage built that you can run 12's and a bump off the upper...eliminate a tacoma weak point and have the ability to run a dual rate spring

If you are running a race spindle bump off the upper

 

do you guys prefer to bump off a strike plate on the upper control arm or bump off a plate on the upper uniball itself?
