DIRTY SEVEN CLUB

Hey @reywcms, did you make your own fender liners for your glass fenders, or did you have a shop make them for you? Trying to empty my wallet and I heard you're pretty good at that.

 

No liners on mine I made my own to protect the door hinges. I’ll be making a set when I cut the wheel wells out but just to protect the critical areas.

 

I've got these bushings in my garage. How long did it take you to do this?

 

Also, your dad's rig look like a TAV build?

 

it started as that yes but we’ve since redone everything. lol more info on both our rigs below

Mine (probably out of date on a few recent items)

Just curious, did you guys just not like what they did? Or just adapt it to your personal needs?

 

Definitely overpriced for the items and really not a lot of performance there. But part of the learning process

 

Gotcha. I've always liked their builds but it's good to hear from someone getting some real use out of them.

 

Ok so I been lurking around the thread which as you guys know if your here most likely your going 37s lol.

So my question is how will this setup work for a street warrior.

- Bilstein 8112 DSA+ fronts and 8100 Bypass rears
- JBA UCA or Icon Billet not sure if the icon are worth the extra $$$
- Deaver U748 springs or K37 not sure what will be better + U-Bolts and Bushings
- Coachbuilder .5" lift shims x2
- Carrier Bearing Drop
- Coachbuilder +1 Shackle
- +25 wheels

If there is anything I should change or suggestions please advise.

 

Taking mine in to the shop tomorrow morning for 37s! Here she is as she sits on 33s today.

 

Chicken legs right now for sure lol. Looking forward to seeing the results tomorrow. Let us know on drivability when you get a chance also.

 

how are you liking the Fox PE goods? Is that off the shelf or did you get from Accutune?

 

I got them from Accutune, and I can't recommend them enough. Great customer service from those guys. And yes, the Fox stuff is great. I love the DSC adjusters.

 

This is a kickass thread! Got lots of reading to catch up on. New guy here.

 

Should look sweet. What tires?

 

When i see you name here, i hear it as "race worms". Lol.

 

If Rey says yes, it’s a must. He’s already gotten into your head to spend your money.

@reywcms

 

Excited! Time to fill in those wheel wells.

 

Don’t get too deep into the rabbit hole. Soon enough you’ll end up in the supercharger thread.

Here ya go: https://www.tundras.com/threads/general-supercharger-thread.85513/

 

Raceworms embedded into your brain to spend lol.

 

They're on! Now the adjustments... rubbing a little, but I still need an alignment, and can always cut more.

 

Cutting is part of the fun.

 

I'm waiting to enjoy the fun but nobody gives me suggestions from post i make

 

You planning on any load? Then if so the k37 is out. Also upper arm wise I’d skip those and go with camburg, total chaos, or DK

 

For a street warrior? How often do you think you’d be off road?

This is mine sitting on 5100s on all corners.

I’m sure I can take it off road no problem, but desert go fast over washes, most definitely not the ideal setup.

 

Anyone running King 3.0's and 37's? Got my kings 3.0's coming in the next week or 2.

 

I ground lots of slots on the pinch weld, then hammered them flat. Then drilled a new hole to bolt the bottom of liner away from tire. I ground off a lot of the body mount. I still need to get plates welded on the body mounts. Then took a heat gun to the plastic inner liner to push/ stretch it away from the tire. I see you have no problem with your aftermarket front bumper. I had to grind a lot of the inner bumper, drilled new holes to tighten things up. I have 35 x 12:50’s now with more than enough room. I’m sure I’ll have room for 37’s. Which will be my next size.

 

I bearly carry a load but to be safe I'll go with the U748. For the UCA which one is preferred for street use living in a salt state?

 

Not often most likely bearly, I ran 5100 on my 1st gen but was recommended 8112/8100.

 

Everyone is going to recommend those. They stack up with the rest of the top brands.
