SilverRunner's Build and Adventures Thread

Thanks man! Definitely not the time to panic and stab the brakes that’s for sure!

 

A buddy of mine just sent some high resolution photos he took. Some great shots!

 

Fiddled around with some ways to get a little more flex out of the rig today.

Ended up installing some .25” top hat spacers on top of the extended travel Dobinson's shocks. This lifted the front of the rig a bit and also earned half an inch of down travel when flexed out.

Thanks to the diff drop my CV angles are still good. Luckily, I already have upgraded front bump stops to avoid bottoming the shocks out internally. I still have about 1.5" of usable rake as well!

I did turn the steering wheel and inspect for any binding at full droop. No issues with the CV’s, and not too much boot bind. No contact between the coil and UCA's ball joint cup either (although it was very close)

This is about as far as I’d push a mid travel setup. Not bad for IFS.



The floor jack ran out of travel here. Used a 6" thick piece of wood to try and flex it out.

The rig still had more to go. Especially in the rear.



Loving how the rig stayed nice and level when testing cross axle articulation.

 

These are some great shots. I wish I could have gone this year.

 

Just enough rake and more travel than ever before. Good stuff!
