The Farmtruck
I got this truck when I was 14. With alot of help from my dad I lifted it 4in and put 33-12.50-15 BFG mud terrains on it. It has stayed about the same since then. Only changes have been it is now running on mickey thompson baja mtz's and a few other small changes. The truck has done really well off road but I think it is time to make some changes. I plan on slowly upgrading the suspension because I like to Gofast.

Re: The Farmtruck
The coils on my truck are hitting the shocks. Any ideas what is causing this and how to fix? I want to get this taken care of before I get new shocks.

Re: The Farmtruck
Is your radius arm pivot lowered? If the angle of the beam is right on compression the spring will get pushed backwards.

Re: The Farmtruck
Let me know if not, I have a set of radius arm drop brackets if you cant get the extended radius arms.
I'm just here for the views. It helps me feel wanted.

Re: The Farmtruck
It has radius arm drop brackets. I plan to go to extended radius arms in the future though.

Re: The Farmtruck
So the increased uptravel from the lift, but keeping the stock R.A.s could be causing enough angle on the beams to push the spring backwards? C&T beams and extended R.A.s are next on the list after new shocks. Maybe I will try and speed that up a little and be nice to the bronco until then.

What a beautiful picture. We lived outside Post Falls for 4 years when I was little. I remember seeing white as far as I could see then too.bigJake wrote:Here's a view from my back porch in Idaho just for fun.

Re: The Farmtruck
The coils work great. I am just waiting for some new bilstien 5100s to really test them.
