Are you worried about the temperature of that epipen? I try to take one with me everywhere, but they are supposed to stay between 68-77 degrees, which is a pretty narrow window
are the bottom out bumper stops available in orange for the fox internal bypass 3.0 these go on the rear of a 2016 rzr turbo I think the shaft is 7/8 Bumper is about 2 1/4 inch tall can't find much info doing a search
Is it possible to just swap out the rebound shims and not the compression shims when revalving? Like if I like where the compression is at but find it needs more rebound damping
picked up bilstein 8112s up front from you for my gx470 and love them! i’m trying to figure out what to run in the rear now with a steel rear bumper+swingout with a full size spare (~150-200lbs). coming from eibach stage 1, do you think that king 2.5s would pair well with them in the rear and would the eibach HD rear springs? would i be better off running the standard eibach rear spring? or just switching out to a different spring altogether? thank you!🙏
As soon as I have the cash I’m buying 8112 from your site! How important is it to get matching rears (8100) smooth body? I have eibach resi now can I run 8112 front and eibach rear??? Or would the 8100 rear be a huge improvement or noticeable? I want to go faster in the dunes
As far as I’ve been able to find, they don’t make these for the 3rd Gen 4Runner, correct? Or has that changed? Seeing as this vid is 3yrs old (Hoping I’m somehow wrong). But my front struts just gave out and I was looking to replace or upgrade the currently installed (D558-TO) fronts and (5125) rears with the 8112 set-up if it’s compatible. Thanks
ive always had the watts link idea in mind for how i wanted to build out my cherokee for the trails. never thought about horizontaly positioning it tho. this is sick
perfect timing. just air bagged muh burban for Ze towing yah! Gonna need to do my Mr2 up soon enough too. Gonna need some street track legitness. Cool video man. Keep up the good work
Subscribed! I have a 17 taco trd off road. Went King 2.5 RR extended travel all around with adjusters, Icon Rxt leafs out of the box didn’t add any more leafs, Accutune ubolt flip kit, Dirt king upper control arms. Rides good obviously, looks great, but overall it’s harsh. I feel basically every road imperfection. Doesn’t matter much what I do with the adjusters. Even on higher speed small whoops more aggressive faster driving where I thought this set up would shine, I’m still over here buckin bronco. This was my “dream” truck so went all in on my suspension, but ride is overall harsh. Very rarely do I feel like all of the money/effort I invested is justified for how I realistically use my truck. After watching some of your content specifically your shock value series, I’m considering downgrading my setup. That comment you made about 2.0s and save money for gas got me thinking. I love getting out on trails and playing when I can, but realistically 90% of the time I’m just going to work. Makes me wish I went with a cheap fox 2.0 kit or bilstein 6112 something budget friendly. Saved my money for other mods. I’m sure valving/tuning is my real issue, but still I’m debating selling my Kings and going with a more budget option that has better daily drive “plushness”, but can handle the occasional off road sends. Have I completely lost my marbles?? 😂
I’m trying to figure out how to remove the lower stud pin from the coilovers one my F150. Does anyone know how to do that so I can remove the spring from the coilovers and rebuild my shocks?
That exoskeleton looks great... it's so close to the body that it's not protecting anything if it goes in the doors or roof but...hey...we can see it's just a automotive tribal tatoo for mall crawling.
Dude, that "horizontal" watts link is the answer I have been looking for! Great work and thanks for sharing. I absolutely hate how a panhard bar shifts the whole diff so far out of center at full extension.
my guess as far as the purpose of the aluminum spacer is that it is a stop tube (like in a hydraulic cylinder). It limits how far the rod can extend and thus prevents the rod from bending/buckling
My overland truck, which is built on a military truck, the Mowag Bucher Duro ll uses portal axels and the Watts link front and rear.. Works Excellent, very strong.
Good info here I dig the video!! I purchased a used Tundra and it's got the fox 2.5 series.... I had a lot of loose bolts on the front end and clunking going on. Debating rebuilding or swapping and rebuilding. I think my lower Arms are bad but if I'm in that far I want to do the bushings on rack and pinion.
“Same motor as a 350z which is why it sounds literally awful” ❤❤❤ thank you for the truth, Nissan makes exactly one good non-motorsport engine and they only put it in the GT-R.
