Re: something different 66 long travel truck
 

sweet! i love the pic of it nose to nose with your green truck

Re: something different 66 long travel truck
 

Holy camber!
I hope you have an allignment rack in your back yard!
Seriously, how bad is the camber change throughout the travel, any chance you looked into upper j-arms Dino?
By the way, I owe you a long overdue thanks for the sticker!:metal:

Re: something different 66 long travel truck
 

rob upper j-arms? the suspension still has to adjusted,after kevins it all comes apart to be powder coated.then i will have it all set .allignment rack in my back yard hmmmm i might have to work on getting one

Re: something different 66 long travel truck
 

Ya i agree with Joe, i like the nose to nose shot! Both trucks are sweet! What kind of wheel are those on the green one?

Re: something different 66 long travel truck
 

It might be way more then you want to do , but on some of the desert long travel trucks, they use a j-arm instead of an a-arm. It allows for equal length upper and lower arms, so you dont get alot of camber change throughout the travel.

Re: something different 66 long travel truck
 

i know the fords use j arms, this truck will be set up for fun ,that j arm stuff is for big fun:lol: kevin at grunions has i real cool true long travel truck,and he is going to set up the rest of the suspension for me

Re: something different 66 long travel truck
 

the wheels are some el cheapo deluxe from discount tire nate bought a bunch of sets and i got two sets they are cool looking but i think they were close outs

Re: something different 66 long travel truck
 

Well thats cool, they look good on it though!
