BAMF 2016 Crew Max Build

I have wanted a rack since I first got my truck! interested to see what you come up with!

 

Just used the shop door.

 

I installed some 1" coach builder shackles yesterday not too bad of an install about 2 hours and we pulled the leaf packs to press out the bushings. It definitely smooths out the ride some and they look great they had me at CNC machined!

 

what offset are your wheels to run the 35's? i have seen where others have done a 2.5" front leveling and fit 35's without body mount chop and just minor trimming.

 

+ 20mm on a 9" wide I haven't trimmed anything just removed plastic I'm about .125 from the cab mount when stuffed with the caster at 2.9 if I hit a bump in reverse it touches the cab mount.

 

Is the caster adjustable on our trucks from the factory? I am new to trucks in general which is why I ask.

 

Yes I'm pretty sure all IFS vehicles have adjustable alignment cams.

 

you seem like you know a lot jlee. I just got a tundra.... been doing jeeps for a while. I have no idea what size tire a tundra can do without a lift. Saying that. I have a 2014 limited. There are 33" tires on the truck, and we have the same fuel rims. Mine are 20's though. I think there is a lift on this truck because it feels taller than most tundras, I am just curious how much lift I need for 35's on the backspacing of a rim that we have. When I am in reverse, I rub. It never rubs when I am going forward though.

 

It could be your caster in your alignment I have mine pushed forward to 2.9 and I don't rub the cab mount unless it's at just the right angle pulling in fast into a parking lot.

 

I am rubbing the front bumper though, not the cab mount. Would that still have to do with the caster in my alignment? If so, how hard is that to change?

 

Oh I pulled all my front plastic off.

 

Got a picture of what that would look like?

 

Yep

 

My bumper looks the same. Glad I'm not the only one!

 

Hey Jerry, have you done any renderings for some sliders yet? I would like to see how they come out!

 

I have not the crew max sliders will look just like our Tacoma sliders just longer and a heaver wall main tube. I'm trying to get a set made up before the end of May but were swamped!

 

Sweet! looking forward to getting some done.

 

Hey Jerry just pm'd ya got a few questions when u get the chance!
-mark

 

The truck is getting some BAMF action this week.

 

I neeed this /\/\/\/\/\/\

 

I haven't weighed it yet as its not done over 100lbs I would assume. It's definitely something for two people it's too large to move alone easily. I can pick it up off the ground but there is no way would I be able to put it on or remove it alone without a hoist.

 

I'm thinking of going with the Fox coil overs 2.5d and throwin 35s on new 18" wheels. I'm curious, How much did it lift the truck? I'm calculating roughly 6 inches. that sound right?

My plan is to get additional 3" lift with that setup. But im still trying to research things.

Anyways, its looking sweet man, nice truck.

 

My front end is only lifted about 2" maybe less.

 

What he said. I think to Coilovrrs can be adjusted up to 3" from what I read, and yes plus the height of the 35's plus a 3" lift. It seemed to be around a 6" total lift

 

Normally you don't consider the tire height in terms of how much lift you have. Say if you had a 3" lift and 35's and someone asked how much did you lift it? You would not say the truck is lifted 6" you would say your truck is lifted 3". Lifts are the suspension of the vehicle being lifted or I guess body lifts as well but most stick with suspension that's pretty much the norm in the lifted truck world.
