get blazed

Thanks doc

Thanks for the bake.

I finally did it. This last weekend I removed the chromed tubular side steps on my D-Max. They were installed by the previous owner and their biggest fucking effect was to optically lower the truck although it's lifted. The reason for that was the rather large diameter of the tubes in combination with the low mounting position: The upper side of the tubes started where the lower part of the side rockers ends.
It was a 1 1/2 hours job with the ratchet because everything was rusted to shit, all the eight bolts of the wrap-around brackets stripped off but not before I unscrewed the nuts for at least an inch or so. If they got torn-off as soon as I started wrenching the job would have been a lot easier and faster.
Luckily (and to my surprise) the frame underneath wasn't affected which is rather weird since the brackets were so rusty.
Well, anyways. My truck has a much more lifted look now and a real rusty risk is gone for good.

>>28137746
>D-Max
Sounds cool. You should post some pics.

>>28137746
I know that feel. That's why I only allow rock sliders that have a smol diameter and are bent upwards.
Also side steps usually look like ass on a lifted trugg

kek. i was out on a logging road and the snow was compacted into ice. it was a warm day so the ice had softened a lot. I had to pull off to the side for a diesel 1 ton so he could squeeze by me. the truck was sinking 3 inches into the soft ice and the wheel hop was horrible as he tried to find traction
my tacoma stayed on top the entire time

>>28140633
Yeah I would never offroad with any of my trucks besides normal stuff. Both too heavy and unmaneuverable.

why aren't 3 links more popular offroad? You would think the geometry allows more flex but I never see anyone move away from 4 links that come factory on jeeps n shit

Probably "lift kits" that are just longer springs and then optionally longer lower control arms to fix the caster
I don't recommend short arm lift kits, they just make the vehicle ride like shit
If you wanna lift do a proper lift with a long arm kit so it flexes better and rides smoother

>>28146101
i was purely curious why i was seeing this phenomena, now i know the option is there for non-bitches

>>28146103
Both have their advantages, it depends on application.
Neither is outright "better" than the other.

>>28146710
Short arms isn't a design constraints of "4 link".
That's an issue with jeep and bolt-on kits.

>>28146866
Of course it isn't, but even the 4 link on the jeep isn't triangulated and still needs a panhard
You don't gain anything but redundancy that if one of the arms or mount points fails, the axle doesn't flop over under the truck
I can't think of a single factory vehicle that comes with triangulated 4 link, front or rear
The packaging constraints of a modern vehicle basically make it impossible

why do you lift your trucks to drive around in the desert, you only need a few inches of ground clearance when you're running a solid axle, body lift won't stop you burying your diffs in the sand.

That's a 3 inch lift to clear the 33s, the lift came on the jeep when I bought it, along with the 33s
got it for 1000 dollars with a brand new set of 33in general grabber ATs on it
basically I bought a set of tires with a free jeep attached to them
and to be fair, the general grabber ATs have held up a lot better over the years than my BFG ATs, those went rock hard and started cracking long before the tread wore out

>>28148662
>bro the 4 link is better because it resist side loading!
No, that’s entirely wrong lol
What you linked is obviously bullshit and you can’t even come up with your own sentence, only copy pastes from Google that you don’t even understand
If you understood it, you wouldn’t have pasted it
3 link or 4 link both handle their side loading via pan hard you fucking retard (unless triangulated which literally never happens in the front of a factory car or truck)

>>28148894
No I get it, thats why I'm saying just do it yourself fuck the government. Does the DMV go out and look at your tyres??

You automatically assumed parallel links with a panhard because you lack experience and that's all you know.

>You automatically assumed parallel links with a panhard because you lack experience and that's all you know.
There's literally no factory truck that offers triangulated 4 link retard, they even moved away from 4 link + panhard because there's no room in a modern vehicle for 4 links, that's why everything uses an inferior radius arm suspension now
>And it's ironic that you raved at the capability of the stock rubicon suspension and even posted a video of one climbing a vertical rock face.
Yes, a stock 4 link with short arms blows the fuck out of IFS, when the playing field of the modern truck is so weak, even a shitty short arm 4 link mogs
Why do you think jeep never went IFS?
Also, where's your truck again?
Let me stress this again, I made this poster scared to post his truck, I intimidate him so badly that he doesn't want to have his truck associated with these posts

I fought the crave for an old Hilux for many years and I thought I was done with it. Now I see this and it's all back. I mean look at it. The 37s, the white and blue color combo, the black bumpers and rocksliders. It's purest sexxx.
Should I say fuck it and start looking for a 4th or 5th gen?

>>28153246
TWR is one of the most based 4x4 channels on yt and the yeti is definetly a sexo Hilux. But should you pull the trigger? well keep in mind that everybody loves old hiluxes. so they are somewhat overpriced especially in the US. and no matter what it will be an at least 30 year old truck with all cons. so you will spend a lot of money and you will have to do a lot of wrenching. if that ain't no problem for you then go for it. there are worse ways to spend several grand on a truck.

Debatable. At least during the 80s and early/mid 90s jap stuff was built to rather high standards. I don't say Hiluxes are lightyears better than anything else made during that era but I think it's debatable to say they are "not better" at all quality-wise.
>But ultimately they're just a meme
But be true, but then again, the heart wants what it wants fren.

The vehicle is simply a puzzle that must be solved, we apply tools and mind to solve the puzzle
The hardest part is solving it in the least amount of moves with the least money spent, while still maintaining a nice end result

did you just use a can of spraypaint? how close do you usually spray to the part? are the instructions on the can just a meme? only asking because when I use it at the distance indicated on the can, it feels like the coat is way too light.

>>28153334
The can says to do multiple light coats but I just do one wet ass coat, let it dry for a day then I bake it in the oven for an hour at 300 degrees
It comes out rock fucking hard
Rustoleum is my preferred paint but if you don't bake it, it can take literally weeks to months to fully dry depending on the weather
When you have felt how hard the baked paint is, you'll realize what truly dry paint is
It stinks really bad when you bake it btw just a heads up

Hell yeah brother

>>28153342
thanks, yeah i've been using rustoleum bbq black, never thought to bake it. it doesn't permanently stink an oven does it? was kinda thinking about using the kitchen oven...

>>28153342
When it's forseeable that I will need entire cans with basically no leftovers I switched to 2k spray cans a few years ago.
Shit works like real mixed 2k paint out of a gun and is tougher than even the good 1k stuff.
The only downside: Once you've activated the can there's no way back. After four to six hours you can throw the can and everything that's left inside in the trash.
That's why I'm still also using baked rustoleum for smaller parts - it's a lot cheaper

>>28153405
If you "dry" parts with a torch beforehand the BBQ paint adheres better.
I'm not talking about blast furnace heat- it doesn't take much, you can see it happening.

Wtf are you talking about, combustion creates water vapor, the surface is cool enough to condense it, that is the water you see
This piece of glass has no water trapped in it, neither does my table, yet they both condense the water vapor generated by the torch
As would a metal surface
Same reason water drips from your cars tailpipe when you start it, the exhaust is cool enough to condense the water vapor generated by combustion, and water drips out the tailpipe
That is until the entire exhaust is sufficiently hot, then all the water leaves as vapor with none condensing
Speaking of high school, you don't appear to have finished

>Propane undergoes combustion reactions in a similar fashion to other alkanes. In the presence of excess oxygen, propane burns to form water and carbon dioxide.

Has anyone here ever Lincoln locked just their front axle? Here is my thinking, in low traction but intermittant road conditions you can throw it in 4wd and lock just one hub. This gives you more drive traction without the binding associated with using 4wd on dry surfaces. And then there are the obvious benefits in low traction off road environments. I'm going to give it a shot on a spare d44ttb I have and let you guys know, but I wanted to see I'd anyone else has had the same idea

>>28169131
Should be totally fine, stock boost is around 14psi but the stock turbo is way smaller than the one I'm running
Plenty of people out there running 25psi+ on these without opening the motor
I'm just after stock 4.0 power levels, but peak torque will be nice and low for offroading and chillin
Gonna try and turn the boost up right now and see what happens, may also have a boost leak it's kinda hard to tell really but it's the first time ever running so it's gonna have some small hiccups

Going by your post count and post times, 4chan is your entire life.

I was deep offroad this afternoon, surveying storm damage on my property in an area I haven't been to in 5 or 6 years. I never once thought "gee, I need to post a pic of this online to random strangers"...

I do believe you will be here in 30 years- because 4chan is your only identity.

It's always some 19-y/o wigger that thinks making wheels and tires "fit" means that they actually fucking WORK.
>oh yeah bro they fit, but they rub like hell at full lock and it's even worse when the suspension is flexed so I just put stops in and my turning radius is now eight city blocks but it looks fukn SICK bro

>>28170014
>google what tires fit on a tacoma with a certain lift
>get paragraphs of the most basic explanation
>Nothing is perfect and so there are some disadvantages of running larger tires that you must be aware of. Bigger tires and a lift put more stress on the suspension components, which may require more frequent maintenance. They also raise the vehicle’s center of gravity, which slightly improves the body roll. Due to the improved overall wheel diameter, the speedometer readings will no longer be accurate.
kek that's even more retarded.

But there's an equal smattering of posts totaling to "they fit but rub" to "they fit with no rub!" to "they don't fit" to yada yada yada. All when discussing a simple question of "will 285/70R16 fit on <year/make/model>?"
They all conflict. It's fucking obnoxious.

Can you identify what's going on in this pic?

Is there a lift?
Are there body modifications?

>>28170058
My point of this post is that the little black rubber piece below the chrome bumper has been trimmed.
So when you read "it rubbed", that notation is worthless unless you are familiar with the platform.

It was rubbing on fame or bumper or fender or oh that piece of shit rubber that was added because c.a.f.e. standards says we need it..

Hey /o/ff-road, I have a JKU 2014 I recently got a 6.2L lt1 with 2 speed atlas transfer case swapped in. I have a metal cloak 3.5" lift and have 37's, I noticed that the body rolls more and the front sags a bit more than before due to the new motor's weight.

Id like to upgrade the suspension. I wheel the Rubicon trail often, I can get through all obstacles with the current suspension, but am interested in getting something better. Could you recommend a suspension setup that would give me the flex and articulation for getting though rough trails like the Rubicon, but also be great for daily driving. Thank you

Damn homie mine puts out stock 4.0 power with 0 pounds of boost.

Show me on the doll where the beer and guns touched you
>>28171012
Yeah but mine gets double the mpg of yours and runs on used motor oil lol

>40mpg XJ
Damn nykkuh that must be some kind of world record. Especially since you tuned it for more power and put it in a heavier and brick shaped vehicle. Yet it gets better mpg than the stock vehicle (small car) that you took it out of. That's some fuckin wizardry right there.

You either broke the laws of physics or are just talking out of your ass.

>runs on used oil

The car it came out of got 45mpg average on fuelly actually, and the jeep gets 15mpg average on fuelly
My toyota with the om617 gets 30mpg flat
Also. diesels don't work like gas, the fuel pump injects as much fuel as you press the pedal, a fully modified engine with bigger turbo injectors etc still gets the same mpg as the stock one unless you smash on the gas, then it goes down
Diesels don't have a throttle, the amount of fuel injected is the amount of power you get out, and on a mechanically injected diesel like mine, your foot directly controls the amount of fuel injected
If I floor it, black smoke comes out, if I barely touch it, no smoke comes out and I get amazing mpg

Also I got 250 gallons of diesel on the property, all 3 of my trucks here will run on waste motor oil or the fuel that is in my storage tank

Cannot get these white line bushings flush for the life of me. I’m using a threaded bolt, washer and nut to press it in. Looks flush when I have it tight but undoes itself when I loosen the bolt. Am I doing something wrong?

>>28173386
They dont go flush, just make the metal race(?) on the bushing is inside the mounthing hole. Looks like it is.
Had the same issue

>>28173431
Flush isnt the right word but the bushings wouldn’t stay still, realized that I had to put the bigger bushing that goes around the shaft first to hold it in place. then I just pressed the bottom and top into place, one at a time. I can’t believe how badly the ride quality was effected from these

>>28171260
you're making this sound tempting.
is there any extensive ECU fuckery involved or is that a non issue with the mechanical pump ?

>>28173594
Worse ride quality now? Mine felt alot better but old bushings were rocks

I used to abuse the fuck out of my xj, put dump trailers and cars weighing 5k behind it weekly on the bump stops. put 100k miles on it and traded it for an eagle. let's see you tow anything without melting that slag heap down

GM hope.you had a white Christmas

Holy shit that's grim
Anyways, yes TDI can tow, here's a video of it towing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdXKg19BULI
Also, you're acting like I don't have 3 other 4.0 jeeps on the property other than my diesel swapped one lol
Do you really only have one jeep?
Shit, I also have my cummins for towing too, not that this little TDI can't as evidenced by that video
Speaking of 4.0 jeeps I just put a new head on one of my other XJs, the one I took the lift kit off last thread, it's running so fucking smooth now holy shit

Doing the timing chain now, quite a bit of slop in it
>>28173599
You'd be better off using the stock ecu and pump, the mechanical injection pump is around 800 dollars and another turbo that isn't VNT is also 800 dollars plus the need to make or buy custom manifold for the turbo
If you just keep the stock ecu and turbo you'll save thousands but I like mechanical diesels which is why I also diesel swapped my toyota pickup and own a 12v cummins

Got a few hundred miles on it and filled up, 29 mpg in the diesel XJ on 33s
I'm thinkin' we're fucking back

Can I put 31x105.x15 tires on my stock '93 Ranger without rubbing? Tire shop refused to do it saying it would rub, but I have seen lots of posts on forums where people say they have done it and it works fine. And would I need spacers?

>>28176158

She even brought her calf up to say hi too. His antlers were just starting to peek through so I guess that makes him a juvenile instead of a calf.

Yeah they scared the shit out of me. I didn't see or hear them coming. I just looked to my right and see a big ol moose nose pressed against the window. Was something else. They were cool though. They didn't seem aggressive but I didn't try and push my luck.

If you want a tire size and the wages at the shop won't do it just put your truck up on jack stands and take just the wheels down to the shop.

>>28176364
I daily a 2020 car lol
And have a house
The property I live on gives me plenty of space to have a garage full of tools and tons of fun projects like multiple diesel swaps and turbo LS swaps

Yes 31s will fit.
They'll rub at full lock on the radius arms but will clear.fenders and bumper.

Watched an episode of "Northwoods Law".
Dude heard a ruckus outside and went out to see a moose attacking his dog.
He unloaded his 10mm into it.
Cops showed up, checked to see dog was doing OK, verified the story matched the scene, called it a good kill and let the guy keep his out-of-season, poached bag 'o meat

>>28176403
