Mid travel overland-wheeler build with 35's and BS w/ SAS in the works

I know. I'm going to stick with my dakars now since this shit came up. Cause I was wanting to use this money for full skids but that's not happening now

 

I got my bumps and extensions from trail gear for like 50 bucks... how much is your shackle flip gonna run?

 

$220 from sos then gotta get shackles if I read it correctly...

 

ATO... when will you learn? Go with ATO. Then if nothing else run your stock shackles for now to save monies.

 

I'm trying. I just saw a few running the SOS so I didn't know. What's the difference between all of them though?

 

Pretty sure you can run stock shackles on sos flip too but I could be wrong.

 

It's the other way around

 

I wonder where you saw this setup..

 

I dont see any issue running stock shackles on the SOS flip. I was thinking if doing that with mine just to lower the stink bug a bit, but its growing on me.

I just need to drop my carrier bearing about 1.5" to make correct the extra DL angle thats causing a slight vib at launch.

 

2 piece driveshaft problems

 

Very very true...

Struggle is real

 

Uhhh

 

Ok so in the next few weeks I'm going to be ordering a shackle flip that reuses stock shackle to give me ~1.25" lift, all pro u bolt flip kit and wheelers super bumps to fix my problem. That seems like the best way after talking with a few people and taking measurements

 

And some new lower mounts or are you counting on the ubolt flip and bump to be enough to stop you from bottoming?

 

I thought he got the BAMF relocation around Christmas time like a few of us did (myself included)

 

Won't you have to recycle everything once you put in a shackle flip to verify it is setup properly again?

The shackle flip is going to effect the lower shock mount too isn't it?

It's installed already

 

Right, but the issue is that his lower mounts are too high on the axle right now and not leaving a buffer against bottoming.
If he puts the all pro flip on he will lift the bump by 1/4" but the wheelers stops are squishy, so im not sure he will still have enough buffer.
Only one way to find out, measure and cycle it to be sure after the flips are installed. If its still going to bottom, he needs to cut the lowers off and remount.

 

Ah right I didn't see how they were installed. When I did mine, we left about 2" of shaft exposed when it's fully compressed

 

Hmm, i had you pegged as a balls deep kinda guy. If i left 2" of shaft my lady wouldn't be happy at all with the 2" shes getting.

 

I'd like to say I expected differently but then I remembered is Acerwin's thread and I would just be lying to myself
