2007 + 3" Tundra Leaf Conversion - By Savage Fabrication Intro Pricing in first post

yeah And LT requires bed sides along with other things, but for MT guys who want to do it all, as long as we can get the clearance for the 3" leafs to work on MT this kit is a perfect option!

 

I still want glass for the badass factor.

 

they do look good! just dont forget to have the correct offset or spacers to fill them out.

 

If I can get some Legend IIs to fit, I'll do that. But that's not for a bit.

 

You can probably sell the CB shackles for what the TC ones will cost.

 

Here is my MT SOA setup:

 

If you can make it work, sign me up....
MT SOA with MCM shackles

 

any chance you can get me a measurement from the outside of the leaf to the shock body, that is where we are gonna run into problems if any

 

i had issues trying to make the ubolt flip kit work with the triple bypass. clearance will be really tight but it is still possible.

 

hmmm if you could PM me

 

1.75" to the body of a 2.5

 

Thank you!

 

I'll check on mine to double your sample size.

 

I agree on not half-assing it, but why can't the shocks remain located at the stock location with SUA and strapped? I thought the reason for the axle-side shock location change is to accommodate passing through the wheel well to the bed cage and a longer bypass.

That why we stayed MT also. Where are you located? We moved to Ohio from AZ and the trails are certainly narrower here.

 

when i was converting to SUA, there is not enough room for a SUA axle leaf mount and the u bolts to squeeze in next to the stock shock mounts.

 

I looked that up and was thinking the same thing.

Now I gotta start thinking about the whole rear end setup. I am about to get left in the dust with all your LT setups.

 

well im here to help you, should have the MT setup sorted in a week or two, just need to do some measurements and figure out a few minor details

 

Need a truck for measuring?

 

We would never leave you behind on a trail and don't mind waiting Scott. Regardless, a leaf spring upgrade won't hurt.

 

I'm in FL. I typically cruise the national forest roads and trails. All of it is multi-use.

 

Looks like there should be plenty of room. 3" leafs are only 0.375" wider per side

You would have to cycle it and check for clearance. Some of the SUA kits, like TC and MCM, that keep the shock under the bed do use similar lower mounting point on the axle as oem, but I believe both of them change the mounts a little because of interference.

Kevin, the reason for relocating the lower shock mount on a full LT SUA conversion is for two reasons:

1. To help reduce axle wrap. The spring pressure from the shock resists axle twist.
2. To maintain as close to a true 1:1 shock leverage ratio as possible. The axle moves in an arc and you want to position the lower mount a little in front of the axle to mitigate as much of the arc as you can.

 

Absolutely correct Alex, and yes there should be room, but on the SOA setup we need to check for guys running the 2.5 triple bypasses. But all signs point to shouldnt be an issue.

 

especially need to check the guys running 2.5 bypasses that tend to rotate and interfere and blow up on the trail ...

 

Well, this is my tag. I am interested in MT SOA.

 

did Deavers mention a price for his 3" leaf pack ? or ball park

 

I thought someone said $1200. I'm sure they'll pipe up soon

 

That’s a pretty good guess should be around that price

 

I'm just going to subscribe and keep my eye on this... definitely isn't my time at the moment, but have been in the air to do an SUA setup and been trying to read up about the 3" leafpack setups that you are running.

 

Just give deaver a call, they're easy to talk to. Make sure you mention Alex and Bruce sent you so he knows whats leafs you're talking about. This is still pretty knew for them. I'll be talking with Jeff in person tomorrow morning so let me know if you guys have any specific questions

 

Thanks brother!!
