Cyberman

Sorry, confused. They both bolt to the rear, but they aren't the same height.

He's talking about the rotors lol

Sent from my HTC Incredible S using YotaTech

Sorry, was answering post #80 about rotors. Didn't notice all those other posts lol.

wolf28

lol its ok

well still no axle friend says maybe next week now im debating about doing this or not
is it worth it for me I use it as a daily driver, trail use, mud, gravel road and some twisty trails. and if not wat other things would make my truck better off road

wolf28

to the top

as far as having an SAS pickup with nice shoes as a daily...well, you'll have to adopt an entirely new driving style on the street...basically relearn how to drive the truck. also, the mpg's go down, but the fun and looks increase dramatically.
TOTALLY worth it when you see the benefits on-trail.

just an fyi...you are embarking on an expensive addiction...it's never really 'done'.

osv

x2!!

it's like owning a boat! a bottomless money pit, lol

whatever you do, have a reason for the choice that you make... for instance, sas is the only option if you want to go rock crawling, but it may not be the best choice for high-speed desert racing.

I like going faster down the trails not to much rock crawling by me a lot of mud and beach sand trails

osv

sand means that you'll want: 1)all four wheels locked, 2)air down the tires.

i removed my stock air conditioning compressor, and put in a york air conditioning compressor, that i use for airing up the tires... you can also convert your stock air conditioning compressor to pump air, use a tank or electric, etc.... in sand, air pressure makes a huge difference... no need for sas there.

mud i'm not sure about... i hate mud, lol

i would check to see if there is a way to lock both front axles on the setup you have now... it seems like such a basic question, but all i know is solid axle tech.

there is a big thread here on yt, on long travel ifs front ends.

Redeth005

If you don't plan to rock crawl then sas is probably not gonna be for you. If you like higher speed desert stuff like u mentioned I would definitely go with a Blazeland long travel kit. You are sure to love the performance.

And yes there is a way to be locked front amd rear with IFS. Just make sure to order a locker for a 7.5" toyota axle and you'll be fine. Also make sure u have manual locking hubs. Driving with a locker up front is a pain in the as$ when you can't disengage it. I'm happy I have the manual ones.

truck wheels perfectly for what I do
don't get me wrong id love to SAS it but I don't think itd be worth it for what I do with the truck

If it works fine how you have it then put money into other things. Quality shocks. Lockers. Armor.

Make sure your maintenance stuff is up to par. Good tires that fit style wheeling you do.

wolf28

as of right now I have cheap Monroe shocks in the front superlift shocks in the back and I have mud terrains and a trail gear front bumper with a engo 9000lb winch... what kinda armor should I put on it...

I was thinking a locker for the rear

Cyberman

I don't think sand and mud warrant any armor. I've got lock right lockers front and rear, but you might want to see if you can get a selectable locker for the front.

You need wheel speed for that kinda wheeling, so dual cases or lower gears really aren't necessary either.

Sounds to me like you should focus on lockers and suspension for what you like to do.

wolf28

man selectable lockers aint cheap either
