northwesttaco's SOLD LT Build w/ 35's and BS

Because he knows i'd like him to weld them on lol its in return for alcohol so he'll be okay

 

Long ass project....

 

How long did it take you? @dakotasyota I don't mean this weekend, we have time for those.

 

3-4 hours

 

Damn thats longer than I thought, one less thing ill have to do later though

 

Its just tedious AF.

Pre weld the tabs to save time. We had a lift and all I did was support the front end by using stands under the ouside of the rotors near the lugs. Then marked the area where we wouldnt be cleaning for the alignment. After that we dropped the LCAs and removed the old tabs.

 

Twice pipes too!
And check the front camber! Awesome!

 

I saw that haha

 

Headed over to dirty yotes tote shop (aka @dakotasyota garage) and we got my front brakes in. Stopping is much better now but still have a problem.. I have so much torque with 4.88 gears and 33's that it's hard to come to a complete stop. I forgot to take pictures but they are sexy slotted rotors

Also did the fastest bhlm in the history of TW, switched out my headlights for his old bhlm ones while mine go in the oven



And lastly we test fitted my wheels/tires on his truck with spindle gussets to find out they won't clear 35's, barely clear 33's.. So new wheels it is instead of running 2" spacers. Don't want F5's because I'll be forced with 3.5" bs so switching it up soon

 

Never really looked into 4x Innovations, just Pelfreybilt after being very satisfied with my front, but for a rear bumper I'll have to strongly consider them, they make really good work!

 

@dakotasyota asss is fat AF

 

I love it! Provides the absolute most clearance of any rear bumper for our trucks, but it is heavy.. 1/4" steel. I wish it stuck out a little bit to provide more protection against rocks/stumps etc.. but its amazing. Also wish the spare tire and jerry can holder were higher up like CBI's swing out but I'm sure he could custom make it if you ask, might be getting a new swing out anyway for a few reasons.

Hes got stance for sure, I'll stick out the same with LT once I get new wheels.

 

Forgot he has wheel spacers in the rear.....

Whats your measurements in the rear? from ground to middle of the fender?

 

Yeah 2".
Uhh not sure, I know from hub to fender is about 25.5 or 26"

 

damn you're tall. Im not sure what mine is but yours looks wayyyyyy taller than mine. Could be the AAL also

 

Doesn't help that im at about .5" of lift in the front, CV's are practically flat... Going to try cranking them up sometime soon.

 

If you decide to go with some thing else and get rid of it let me know
Or are you saying just the swing out? Either way give me your rear set up

 

haha I thought about getting an aluminum one made to save weight but honestly don't mind the weight.. Gives me traction. But Ill most likely get a new swing out in the future. Would like a fold down table, have him move the spare tire and jerry can up a few inches like the brute force fab/CBI rear swing outs, and move the spare in so a 35" tire won't be blocking the tail light at all.

 

Will yours fit an adult bed? ( as opposed to your inadequate bed)I might be interested. But you have to help me chop the fender. You know I don't like the sight of blood.

 

Not selling my bumper though yeah it would fit though. If one of you order the bumper and tell him to prepare it for a swing out ill sell you my swing out
