    Testing 62" Deavers

    Just finished mounting 62" Deavers on my Tacoma, here is a video out in Barstow in some narley whoops. It's cycling 21", in the video we still had about 4" of up travel.

    Re: Testing 62\" Deavers

    We still have to finish welding up all the tack welds, but as soon as its finished I'll be posting pics up here. It turned out to be a lot more time consuming then we first thought, but the satisfaction of doing it ourselves (and doing it right) feels good.

    Props goes out to my brother, he did most the work, I handed him tools and drank 7up.

    Re: Testing 62\" Deavers

    Dang, I don't think my puny dial-up modem can handle the video download. Do you have any pics? I just posted a bunch of questions about your setup at Jordan's forum on delphi. Like Gary said, any spring mount/shackle pics would be most welcome!

    Take care,

    Re: Testing 62" Deavers

    You guys could fab-up a hole in the garage door directly above the rear pivot mount and get at least 5 more inches of travel.

    I can't stop laughing!! The extra "ballast dude" seems to help a lot, I will make sure to buy one before we take my truck out for testing.

    How is your truck coming along? We finished the springs tonight, cycling 21". Here is a pic of the top shackle mount.
