definitely a Hawaiian rig... and that panhard/draglink setup looks awesome.

 

WAY too much lift... thats just a waste of effort and money for that vehicle. Dont get me wrong, Sequoias are badass, but they're one of those vehciles thats better stock for the most part

 

I bet you couldn't follow my IFS Runner...

 

holy hell, i just saw that, hahaha, hes going to have a lot of problems in the future with that,

poor pumpkin

 

Well, not many can Jim. Your truck is pretty badass.

 

yup Iam in Hawaii and yes I will put bigger tires on looking to put 39.5 boggers
I just used what i had already which was 35 boggers on 18' wide rims. Also
yes the rear diff is being reangled as we speak it was rushed to get ready for
a big 4x4 truck cruz around the island.

 

wow those 35's look so small.... once you get the 39.5's it will be a beast!!

 

What about the runner in your avatar. Looks like the same rims/tires

 

I kinda like this thing. This is one of the best 'street' lifts I've seen in a while. Usually they use some super arched lift springs with 10" lift blocks, or rediculous drop hangers, not to mention the rebar steering links, that've been stick-welded with a car battery. This rig seems to be built better than most. Props for building it 'right'.

and for the constructive criticism... The steering geometry on this high of lift is tough, but it looks like you could've done a little better getting the lengths to be more similar. Do you have nasty bumpsteer? It's also hard to tell from the pictures, but what kind of joint did you use on the links? Just looks like a plain bushing from here (stay off the RTI ramp, the boggers might eat a couple shocks anyway). I think those tires look unhappy on those wheels, and x2009346756 on the less lift or bigger tires. It's all about the sausage to pancake ratio...

Bottom line, I'm jealous I don't have that kind of money to dump into a rig, and yours is pretty cool. How about some shots of the interior mods.

 

8 fox shocks in the rear? what a waste of good shocks...

 

Thanks to everyone for all the comments and helpful input.

Aloha

Lemme see, $40k rig, $20k in work, that's a $60k truck that won't see any wheeling.

Personally, i would've picked up one of these for $45, then lifted it a bit more with the remaining $15k using an ORS SFA kit, but that's just me.


Way more "Wow" factor, considering Fox signed on with these.

 

just curious, why do you have 18" wheels with 35x14.50 tires on

with the 39.5x18 all you really need is a 15x14 rim, seriously the beachball look is gay, just do not do it.

 

rims are 15diaX18wide with 35 boggers

 

when people say wow.... is it for what o waste? but really tho.... i think you get that 4rnr and tow the sequoia up to pele for an offering brah.

 

The frame side panhard mount needs to come down so it's in line with the draglink. You want the panhard and draglink running the same angle.

Are the frame brackets bolt on?

It's different I'll give you that.

 

holy crap
so many pppppl have TOO much $$ and too much TIME
At least I have common sense LOL

 

Not gonna lie, thats horrible, Ruined a perfectly good vehicle. Maybe if the tires didnt stick out a whole 3ft out of each fender it would be alright, but the chrome and stuff is just dumb, the rim/tire combo is possibly the stupidest thing ive ever seen in my life, Well thats my opinion anyway, If I saw this thing in real life id bust a nut laughing.
