Well,

I finally got my truck on some coilovers. I will have to get some pictures and get them posted tomorrow. I went with a 2.5" King Coilover from Don Thuren. I went with Stage 4 valving and Don set me up with a great dual rate spring setup. I fabbed up some mounts that replace the Shock Tower that is overly strong, and just used the bottom shock mount for now with a little reinforcement. I still have to dial in the springs and get my limiting straps back on. I think I am also going to add some Air Bumps. I will have to say that even with Stg 4 valving it still rides better than almost any truck I have ever been in.

As soon as I get pics I will get them posted. . .

 

Hurry Up With The Pics!!!!!!!

 

I also repainted the entire truck about 4 weeks ago. Still have some pinstriping to do and some small items to take care of! Just before I did the paint and Coil Overs, I replaced another tranny and decided it was time to get gears done. So all in all, it is almost like a whole new truck. Still waiting on my Floor-It pump!





Ok, so the front Driveshaft works and it doesn't vibrate with the angle that is installed at right now. However, I had a failing U-joint that is now being replaced! The truck is at 11" over stock. I am in the process of putting adjustable links on the back of my Radius Arms so that I can move my front axle forward about an inch to make way for the 40"s. I will also probably move my front shock mounts to give myself more compression travel, it is at like 4"-5" right now!

 

Looking Good!

 

I like it, Looks really good

 

How did you mount your rezzy's? Looks like you have Don's mount tucked up in there but cant tell for sure. I have mine up there too, but just clamped them to the inner fender well (yes jankey i know.. ). So far so good but would like something more stable, and the mount from Rize is 250 bucks..
You have any pics of the rezzy's not mounted?
Looks good btw!!

 

what is the advantage of coilovers?

 

Not much...except you absolutely cannot win Baja without them!!!

Just kiddin' BEAUTIFUL TRUCK! How bout a shot of the whole thing!

 

That is a very nice paint job.....very smooth. That is not easy, especially with black paint.

 

Lookin good Crash! Can you take a different shot of how you have your front arms fabbed up? that is an interesting way of doing it.
