Long travel up front in a few month. Fiberglass is in my hands as well. 5.29 gears/lockers are being built and a supercharger or a motor swap next year as well.
I think i need a little more spring, but i also need to charge the shocks, so we will see.
What rates and angle are you running up front? What armor and other mods that add or subtract weight?
I can weigh my truck, i know the online calculators, but asking for real world numbers.
in my hands(should i decide to try this out) is 14” 2.5” fox coilovers with unknown valving.
Well, driving around in the pitch dark did my cruiser no good. A tree branch came out of nowhere and kissed my fender. Its fixable, but i am seeing what’s available.
I have recently been getting a lingering voltage light on startup and occasionally it comes on for a second while driving.
I have no idea how old the alternator is, i do have led offroad lights and a stereo system with an amp. So kinda high demand. Battery is an odyssey 1500 thats 2 years old...
Guess i should start a thread.

Talked to a rep at expo west. Said they were making a tripple adjustable shock to beat the ome bo51. Low speed compression, high speed compression and one rebound. A triple adjustable shock. Said “3 months to hit market”. I was talking about 80 series the whole time, so i hope he was too. 2.6”...
Mine leaks air, its an unpainted aftermarket unknown. It hisses when applying brakes. I lost brakes for a second the other say, well power brakes, so i need this done asap.
Do i: rebuild using oem parts(available???), go aftermarket again or buy a used autozone one from a fellow mud member...
I cannot remember the name of the damn thing to save my life. Its the part i side the truck, to lock or unlock the rear hatch with your fingers. Mine is missing and i need one. Please and thank you!
Anyone ever order one? I noticed a lot of different options on their dropdown, but wasn’t sure how to fill them all out, as they don’t show our exact model, but do list it.
Posted a pic, since we all love pics!
Have some slightly used (4k miles) icon 3” lift fzj 80 springs for sale. Prefer not to ship but will on YOUR dime. I will remove them when my new springs come in. Will come with height coreection spacers.
These are not abused, just dirt roads and mostly highway. Just need a heavier spring...
Noticed my reservoir was low so i popped my cap.
I put in red/orange coolant and prob still had some green in it, but is this all that is going on or something else?
anyone have any? Kit i bought didn’t have any for my wife’s 4runner and she is in love with the emu silhouette. Id be happy to give someone a few bucks for em. Prob would like 3 if i had my way
Ugh, something new and i have not fixed the last problem!
Anyway, on startup sometimes i get an air sucking noise for like 3-5 seconds and then it closes up. At least sounds like its behind the dash.
No lights, no loss of braking or power that i know of, however a tiny stumble at idle. Its...
Trail gear hub nuts. Since i tossed my front end together with new stuff ive had a high speed grrr, specifically on coast and highway turns at 65+.
Ive pulled my front driveshaft a few times and it gets quieter, but still there.
My wheel bearings were a little loose after mile 500, so I...
what could cause a power steering pump to make a noise that sounds like i have a diesel swap?
My buddy(diesel mech) pulled my old leaky one out and replaced with a new one, reusing the gear while i fabbed up my bumper.
Well, i thought it was a bad pump, so i bought another and it nakes...
i have icon springs, but after bumpers i could use a little more lift. Wanting 1” front 2” rear, is there anything out there that is not poly?
Meteltech makes a 1.5” front, but i feel its too high.
Any help is appreciated.
