Toyotech: wow wish my ifs flexed that much.
haha it helps with long travel

Toyotech, can you share specs on the front end set up?
i have a long travel kit in the front. uses the stock arms but extended. the upper is extended using a bracket and the lower is cut and extended. overall each side is 3 inches wider. its pretty much similar to Total Chaos LT kits but mine is all bolt on using torsion bars.

That is sweet, was it cost effective when compared to offerings by Camburg and other companies?

just for everything in the front end, shocks, axles and all. was around $1600. would have been a little less but i didnt send my arms back in as cores
was the only one that was 100% bolt on and i dont do any high speed stuff so it worked for me. i could do a little more to make it handle higher speed stuff by adding coilovers but i dont need it. only place i could see myself going fast would be at the dunes but i have a quad for that

Good ole spaghetti frame GM truck flex.

During a validation test run by my house after installing gears and lockers. Before rear shackle flip, front HD shackles, and it still had super stiff 4” lift springs at that time.

Stuck in a sink hole in the middle of a trail. Flexes better with rear shackle flip and 6” softer front leave springs.

Yes, there are witness marks on the back of the cab where the topper has gotten friendly with it before. :ylsmoke:


It's been a while since I looked at this thread. A few more to add from the oldies on page 1…

Got to love the 70's and 80's trucks where the frame is part of the suspension.:sombrero:
