Long Travel BS Thread

Hey guys, which aftermarket bedsides have the least flare for 2nd gen?

 

glasswork

 

Thanks Anthony, btw, will you be going to Gorman on the 7th? I might be able to make and get you those arms.

 

Dis^

A-arms?

 

Stock LCAs

 

fer why?

 

Anthony's are in pretty bad shape apparently, so Im going to sell him mine for $50, enough to cover the gas for the day out in Gorman and back, win win

 

Nice! He should consider LT in his near future

 

meh, i thought i saw some non-LT trucks out jump you in the last Pismo trip


<3

 

See you at huck-a-thong








<3

 

I'll bring some extra fenders and bump cans for you <3

 

Thank you!!! You can just mail those over now

I'll bring some extra "DOM" bushing sleeves

 

You can mail those over right now too

 

I'll see what I come up with, if I can find 3.0s cheap enough I'll go that route. If not I think I can get by with 2.5s until I get used to the truck

 

What valving are you running?

 

I don't know yet, I'm dropping the truck off in 4 weeks for engage to start linking / caging the truck once all that is done and I find shocks I'll contact the shock manufacturers with my stats for valving.

 

On that note, do you weigh the truck on 4 scales and get an individual reading for each wheel? Is that what the shock manufacturers go off of for valving?

 

You take it out and test. They can get close with some base valving but there is no magic valving based on weight. Not only will everytruck be a little different but each terrain will be different. You need to test on the same type of terrain you want it to perform on (at the speed you want it to perform) and make adjustments from there

 

I figured but you have to send the shocks to get valves right? Sounds like a lengthy process
