    Uncle Eddie bronco build

    What links are you running? They look like some plank/newline/si ranger links. Looks good!

    Local Legend Fenderfab Ranger

    The best thing you can do for drone is get the exhaust to not dump under the cab. The sound waves bounce up and down between the cab and the ground which causes that deafening drone sound. I would do some side exits or out the top or back of the truck somehow if you can. Also, ironically enough...

    Sway away rebuild HELP

    That is 100% a custom deal. I have piles of those o rings if you need two, I’m located in Fullerton. The correct O ring is the larger one, most commonly found in Saw King and Fox kits. Someone must have made their own IFP pistons in those guys

    Truck Spottings

    Small world! That guys name is Shane, i used to work with him at Giant Motorsports many years ago. I’m unsure of where he works now but he’s been chipping away at that expo the past few months lol

    Local Legend Project G4 AKA Quasi-Ghetto

    I’m planing on using these squirters when i finally refocus back in my turd. I’ve seen a few guys use these ones and they like them a lot. https://a.co/d/6ptj4jG

    2Ghetto The Rusty Trombone

    The flipping method is mandatory on bypasses to bleed the air out. Coilovers you also have to cycle the ifp as well to bleed the hoses, and i also have a vacuum setup to assist with some funky shaped hoses and such BUT at the end of the day you are still submerging a piston assembly that has...

    2Ghetto The Rusty Trombone

    The piston seal being broken down and chunked like that is from cavitation/having air in the shocks. I had the same issue YEARS ago and reached out to a few people and learned i wasn’t properly bleeding all the air out of the shocks. Since then I’ve gotten the process down but it does suck...

    What happened to these trucks?

    Ray Butchers old rig got redone in a white and orange paint scheme and a lot of upgrades, then it was sold and who knows where it went. The Isenhouer’s knew the guy who bought it. My old Ranger was cut up, bedcage is welded to a 2007 Ranger edge currently and the chassis is getting one ton...

    Choosing 4-link pivots

    You say it’s overpriced and ancient, yet Tom regularly builds thee nicest rangers out there and there is nobody that would argue that.. I don’t know what “wobbly arms” are but his kits work. Are they an old design? Yes, but so is the internal combustion engine. When it comes to rangers and...

    Tell me about the Ford 300

    It’s one of the longest lasting, best engines ever made period. You pretty much can’t kill them, and they have been used in everything from trucks to tractors to pumps to farm equipment. They have a decent aftermarket support, the later model engines (4.9) have fuel injection, and quite a few...

    Dual IBP shock package

    To further add to this topic, when it comes to simple builds like single shock trucks, the overall suspension setup plays much more of a role in having a good working truck than just the shock package. I mean it matters across the board with all levels of builds in general, BUT it is further...

    Garage Tools

    I have a number of Tekton tools from Amazon, and have yet to brake or bend anything. They are fairly affordable pricing wise and good quality thus far!

    Dual IBP shock package

    Nothing off the shelf would do as you are describing, at least not to the extent you want. King IBP needles and shafts aren’t available in very long lengths like you have drawn but you could always make your own and drill/hollow out the shafts further. Also, the compression adjuster is not a...

    shackle service question

    Make sure the inner sleeves are actually long enough to pinch down and not too short where they’ll just smash the rubber to shit lol.
