LOL I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANOTHER TRUCK ON ANOTHER TIRES  WOAAH

Well I would suppose thats believable considering you did buy a heep to begin with.  You obviously dont get out enough to understand that for the price of your stock tj that you could have built an extremely capable yota.

[Hyena]

This is true! 

[yotaboy79]

very true

[TigerToy]

Yeah, but the TJ is 'Trail Rated' 

[Hyena]

Why not just get Grand Cherakee so you can be "Trail Rated" in "Style" ?   

[TigerToy]

Yeah, then we could all go wheeling on 20 inch spinners and a thumpin system.

[Hyena]

Why not lower it in the process?   

[TigerToy]

BLING! BLING!

[Hyena]

Pimp Krawler all the way!

He watch it guys , thers nothin wrong with a thumpin sound system  and they got off road tires that will take a 20 inch rim 

[brainlessfool]

[yotaboy79]

thats alot of flex but i know away he could get more out of the front end 4 link and 16in king coil overs or other brand of coil overs

[84runner]

Ya but would it be worth the money for the coil overs cause it flexs pretty dam good like that and coils are about $500 a corner 

[yotaboy79]

i never sead it would be worth it lol with the coil overs the front axle would prolly be strait up and down and full flex lol my buddys 16in kings on his prerunner where 850 a pease custome spring rates and stuff

My junk on some place called the "con"

[Hyena]

updates on the white toyota.  He put buggy springs in the rear made of the main leaf of a front toyota spring.  Held on by 3 U/bolts and a center pin on either side.  He also got a 2wd bed and bobbed it.  He is still painting it.

[BigMike]

Hey Hyena,

Its about time I finally see some buggy leafs in action. Ive been doing alot of research with suspensions and Ive decided against buggy springs........ your's seem to work well however.

If you willing to share :chug: then Im courious as to what springs you're using in the rear and what pack did you use for the cut buggy leaf?

Thanks in advance,
BigMike

[81Toy4x]

Newbie question, what are buggy leaves.  I've heard of them a lot but I have never actually understood what a buggy leaf setup is.  Any explanations or pictures would help. thanks

[BigMike]

Hey 81Toy,

The pic above, ramp_005.jpg, shows a close up on that white truck's rear spring/shackle setup. As you can see, the shackle is not attached to the frame, but rather a buggy leaf. It's half of a spring attached to the frame that allows for increased down travel under articluation.

Here are some more pics:

[81Toy4x]

Okay, now I understand.  Thanks Mike.  That's a pretty trick setup.

Dear Yotaboy and Hyena....you guys suck  !

                                       With due respect,

He attached the buggy spring bu using 3 stock toyota u-bolts with the plates per side.  He drilled a hole through the frame and them put a center pin throught the frame and the spring for extra strength.  He has 63 inch chevies rear and the buggy spring is made of a stock main front leaf.  only one leaf. The one with no or even negative arch to it.  I can get pictures of it tomarrow of the whole setup.
