Just got the springs back from coating. I ended up turning him some custom bushings with customized inner sleeves on the lathe. Then machined in spiral grease grooves in the barrel. Now I just need to assemble them. Sidenote- Why the hell does Deaver have two different bushing sizes for their...

First off I'd like to chime in like a bell. Lets not cry over spilled milk. The cow is on the moon, and JFK was assassinated by Mossad. WTC 7 fell at free fall speed into its own footprint because it was rigged to blow sometime in advance. Chevy 63" leaf springs are for people who haven't ridden...

Here is a set of Raptor Springs I’m doing for @2012SVTSC I ended up getting new bushings and making new inner sleeves too because I didn’t like how thin the Deaver inner sleeves were (0.075” wall thickness).

Cool deal man I cant wait to see it all done.

What's the benefit to getting rid of the coil bucket? Is it to run like a 10" dual rate?

Sweet I look forward to doing them for you! Its roughly a 2 week turnaround time.

Thanks for asking man, so yes I have them made for me from Delrin in 2.5" with lips. I had to have them made because its IMPOSIBLE to find 2.5" with lips. I can do any width spring since all the other sizes are already available. Mine have been on for 2 years and have yet to wear through the...

Hello all, after a couple years of testing and a handful of people asking me about how I got my rear suspension to work so well after doing the Terra video, I've decided to offer one of my secrets to the public. No, these will not make your vehicle instantly work like a linked truck but it will...

Depends how its set up. I prefer the F-67 with 12" shackles over the frame. I also cut the bump bracket off my frame though to get more up travel. That being said my truck does sit low compared to some long travel trucks.

When its finished I will for sure. I should have it back from wiring in about 3-4 weeks.

Oh well shit hello there, I almost stopped in yesterday to chat with Eric as our machine shop is next to you guys.

Oh and you will at least need an Idler arm because the stock ones are junk. Oh and the frame truss because they will bend if you don't add support between the rear pivot cradles. Kit- https://www.chaosfab.com/product/1986-1995-Toyota-Pickup-Gen-II-Caddy-Kit-4WD-Long-Travel-Kit-95200-B Idler...

Also, I HIGHLY recommend going spring under with F-67s and 12" shackles above the frame. its an easy 16-17 inches of travel and with the right shock tuning you'll be amazed at what they are capable of.

I am obviously very biased here but there are a few other things to take into consideration when comparing the kits. First off I wont say a bad word about JD as I think they are good dudes (although I've never met them), make good products, and are very knowledgeable. What I will say is that the...

I am not 100% sure and would need to look but I know we sell a specific king coilover for that kit. I don't remember if its exactly an off the shelf 8" stroke because the resi hose and misalignment spacing may be different on an off the shelf. Our stuff uses 1.250" spacers top and bottom.

Hey man, I understand what you are asking after looking at the website so ill break it down a little, sorry for the confusion. From the TC site: TC specific 2.5" long travel coil over shocks bolt to the factory coil bucket location. This means TC sells a specific coil-over for the Long Travel...

So I've always wanted to try these bearings, they make sealed and non sealed versions. They are called "combination" or "combined" bearings. they deal with thrust and radial load. I feel like they would make great pivots for swingers or any type of pivot that doesn't need any misalignment.

Hold please, I have some weird ideas for swingers and bearings. I’ve always wanted to try these but haven’t had the project to use them on yet. I can tell you not to use Teflon as a bushing that takes any kind of shock load. I turned my own bushings out of “virgin Teflon” and although it had a...

Oh then that’s for sure wide enough to handle the leverage. And yes it’s the front bushings that tend to ware out. It’s nothing crazy, it just noticeable when going from acceleration to braking you can feel the arm slightly shift when the bushings ware out.

Hey dude this is going to be epic!! So I do have a word of advice but take it with a grain of salt because I'm no genius .I'm not sure on how you're planning on mounting and making the upper arm, but try and make the pivot spread (distance between the front and rear pivots or heims whatever you...
