steele-tacos not yet built build

I gots an idea. Since there are like 20 of us that would show up or more already, I can’t do it here. I may be able to get a pavilion, with horseshoe pits available, and a kegerator, etc., for a fair price. Let me look into it.

 

And the pulled pork was great too

 

And the smoked cheese.

 

You should try the batch I did last. 24 month aged Cabot sharp cheddar. My god it’s good.

 

Yha I remember it that way too

 

Not exaclty, Homer started, I said I’d be down.

 

Why you say dakars? Do you not like your deavers? Have you ever loaded up your bed? How do the deavs hold the weight?

I'm still decided on a leaf pack. I'm waiting for a quote for a custom made for me leaf pack from ATS spring.

I agree with the 6112s and 700# coils if you don’t want to go with a fully adjustable CO. You’re not SUPPOSED to run 5100s with 886s (I’ll defer to Jon’s crayon deal here). Also, the 886s are 660-680? # springs. You start hanging that kind of weight off the front, more is better.

Good call on the LR UCAs too. Mine worked flawlessly, and the top BJ is now greasable. I wish I’d just kept mine sometimes.

Also, do the shackle flip man! My Archive flip with B110s has a lot of travel. I doubt I’ll ever bother to do a relocate at this point. (Unless I just want a project to do)

Dakars with the extra leaf, Archive flip, B110s. Towed this stupid Jeep Home from PA at 75 MPH. If anyone tells you that you can’t tow with a shackle flip, tell them to STFU...



Oh, I’ve ordered from Wheelers & Headstrong. Both are good, but I like Headstrong more.

 

I was just talking suspension. But yeah you need all of that stuff as well.

I dig my Deavers. I've been loading it up with construction shit and it rides like a champ with minimal squat.
Do some research on these. https://www.alcanspring.com/orbit-eye.htm

 

I'll get proper COs w/res and adjustment eventually. I need a winch, recovery gear, spare parts and OBO first.

 

You know James, if you do 6112s and 700# coils, I don’t see any reason to ever change them. Once the money is spent, leave it alone IMHO. Adjustable coil overs are a lot of money and don’t make your rig any more capable. If I built my truck again, I’d have a different outlook on things the second time around.

 

Good insight. I never went mid grade after stock, so I only know the difference from stock to Kings. I love my ride quality. Luckily mine can be rebuilt so they may out last the truck if I don't change anything.

 

Food for thought.
I'll get a sandwich.

 

I'll buy them from you in a year when you go LT.

 

Agree.

If I need to replace my 6112’s and 700# Eibach’s in the future, I’d replace with the exact same setup.

Same with my current rear setup.

I don’t really see a need for CO’s and Remote Resi’s for the type of wheeling that we do.

 

Ahhh thank you so much @Subway4X4 for your comment, I greatly appreciate it!

 

@Subway4X4
What's the length of your coils?

Are you running extended length 5100s?

No shackle flip right?

 

What's the length of your coils?

No clue. The Eibach 700# is same length of the standard coils included with the B6112’s.



Are you running extended length 5100s?

Yes. Rear shocks are the extended length B110’s



No shackle flip right?

Correct.

 

Ok thanks. Marie didn't want to recommend them because she wasn't sure how they would work with the 6112 and possibly coil binding.
