has anybody used the Giant long travel rear kit as well as the 4wd beam kit?

i'd like to hear about their performance so i can decide if it's worth the money, or whether or not i should just go with the budget stuff, ie. cut and turned beams, shackle flips and whatnot....



thanks, Tim

there really is no "buget kit" giant does build some nice stuff, but you can get some good travel numbers using a nice set of f53 deavers and an under the bed shock mount kit, and then go with cut and turns and nice coilspring/shock package.(kind of what i am running) and what most are running. check out southwest performance for "kit" pricing. im sure that Tony will vouch for his work very clean.
there are other members on this board that do stuff aS well myself included.
but call Mark at S.W.

well, international calls don't really seem to get along with my phone bill, does he have a website?

No, because he sucks at the internet.

Ouch!

Mark does good work. There is also Baja North if you must get something Canadian built.

lol ouchhhh.

Oh and hes hard to get a hold of! But all of his work is totally worth it. Bolt it up and drive it like you stole it. Speaking of which, hey Mark when can I get those spacers from you?
EDIT: Also, when you buy from him, you can ask him questions and he will do pretty much anything to make sure you understand.

yeah i'll see if i can't get in touch with him through the forum here soonish and try to figure out a pretty decent go fast/street setup

giant 64 kit. I've been running it for years. You have to spend the money on good shocks to make anything work good, but once you do that, and tune for a while it is amazing. If you do get the 64 kit Send my a pm, and I will shoot you some pictures of what needs to be gusseted to avoid cracks after a few thousand miles.

Just post the pics here to help everyone out - not just those who PM

I just read this post , and I can vouch for Mark, 3 Bronco's built from him, and one which saved my brother's life, not a single weld busted! He is a little hard to get a hold if, and I guess sucks at internet, but I dont want him to build me a website, I want him to build me a Bronco.

And Randy is correct, he will spend endless time helping/explaining things to you.

I just didn't want it to come across as me bashing giant. I love the kit. I'll scrounge up pictures...

How about those pics?

No such thing as bashing. Constuctive criticism is what its called If there is something you dont like about someone's kit, tell them in constructive terms. That way those in question will be more likely to take note. Same goes for the good, by all means post up if like the kit in question either way, but be nice about it. It means more to those who make the stuff if you go about your comments in a good way, keeping it short and sweet and dont make it a novel. I always tell my few customers, if you are happy, tell your friends, if not, tell me first, so I can have the opportunity to make it right for you.

id like to see pics as well

The nice part of the Giant Radius arms, over SWP... is that you have caster adjustment with the heims. Which definitely comes in handy when your adjusting your ride height, swapping coils, etc...

Those SWP setups are hella clean though... I think they look the best anyways.

Say what??? Giants radius arms are adjustable?

I'll second that. Great bunch of guys, and they are a stones throw from you.

I have Giant radius arms and I'm familiar with what he builds. How does the hiem adjust caster? I know that mine only allow a little wheelbase adjustment.
