NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Yep 6” Fab tech DB. He has dirt logics in there now. ADS had him take his measurements and built him a custom length set. So hopefully it’s not such a dump truck anymore.

 

That would make sense. Standard length springs with extended shock body. I'm sure that'll be better. Mine feels awesome

 

looks fun, i am actually pulling the motor on sunday. also, make sure you torque down your tensioner bolts. ask me how i know

 

His old stuff was acting like a limit strap and he had an inch of droop. I can’t exactly remember all the numbers but this should get him another two. I want to say it was 26.5” and these are built to 26” and his old ones were around 24”. He put the SPC’s on to get more castor but they allowed more droop too and bottomed it out.

 

That one?

 

Yup. This is what it looks like when it backs out and the damage it can cause

 

And there was a whole lot more metal than what’s shown

 

Feel sorry for the next guy, it’s getting some 202 before I put it back in now. That shit isn’t going to happen. That sucks.

 

yeah. it took almost 8 years for it to back out. but it had been making noise for a while now. maybe 2 years? i just thought it was idler noise. think the bolt was just loose and it was flopping around and then last friday, the bolt came completely loose and everything just let go.

 

I torqued everything going back together on mine last year Thanks for the heads up this one will gets special attention.

 

Damn that bolt is only 14# I went 16# and some 262 loctite.

 

lol, im sure it will stay just fine.

mine also made the dowel pin wiggle itself out of its hole too

 

Pics or it didn't happen....

 

@Usethe2nd I feel like this is right up your alley

Lol we were all fucked off in that switchback and out of no where Devon came rallying through and on by like it was nothing.

 

I could see this being the end game for my truck.

 

There is a small scratch... right.... there....
Think it'll buff out?

 

I’m picking up a rear dana 60 after i get back from the cabin….

 

I need lockers before winter
