DVNT RACING chase build

[ParadigmDawg]

See, if you had hired me, I could have done the measuring for you…

(Awaiting @ParadigmDawg measurement tool pun!!)

I was thinking that our questions were very similar. You said all the things you stated above and I said "does the track bar move forward and backward".

List of the current parts sitting on a shelf in our shop waiting for the truck to be delivered:
-2 - Baja Designs LP9's (Evil MFG Behind grill mount)
-3 - Baja Designs LP6's
-ADD Bomber front/rear bumpers
-4 - Baja Designs squadron pros for front/rear bumpers
-PCI 110W chase radio
-Kibbetech full suspension in king blue
-King 3.0 IBP Coilovers
-King 3.5 Bypasses
-King Bumps
-King axle shock
-Geiser rear springs
-Foutz lower shock guard, rear diff skid, Lower A arms, and tie rods
-Anderson Composites full carbon fiber kit
-Switch-Pros 9100
-Whelen Siren

Just a heads up don't know where your at with this build but the foutz lower A arms do not have provisions for the sway bar I had to cut and fabricate tabs. and misalignment spacers using the kibbtec links also the foutz tie rod ends just barely rub the kings under turning and suspension travel

I’m running Kibbe’s LCA’s and his tie rod kit

Did you use the geiser springs on your build? How’s the stance?

Yes, I used the Geiser rears had to do 7 turns on the front kings to level it out. so far I'm happy sits a lil high but no real rubbing issues on 37 13.5 unless you are in hard into somethin with the wheel cranked and you can turn the spanner nut on the truck just make sure when you put them on you face the locking Allen where you can get to it.

Lots of work this weekend. Got the Anderson composites carbon fiber upper/lower grill and headlight vents on. Also did the Evil MFG LP9 mounts behind the grill. Front suspension is torn down waiting for the kibbe LCA’s to get here. Front ADD bomber bumper is ready to go on, just need to finish the sun harness wiring for all the lights. Rear ADD bomber bumper is on. More photos and the YouTube video should be coming soon.

Looks like a very nice build!
What are you planning on running for wheels and tires?

It’s going on 37x13.50 Toyo M/T’s on Innov8 G600 beadlocks

 

[4FlynLow]

Very nice!
I just picked up my INNOV8 Racing G500’s yesterday From Jason.
I went with the 18”X9”, 0 offset,5” backspace in hard anodized with the rock R rings.
I am concerned that the 37x13.5 tires will rub as they are 1.10” wider then the stock rim and tire.
Are you certain the 13.5 will fit?
Thanks

 

[DVNT6129]

Don’t think it’ll be a problem with the kings

What offset did you go with on the wheels?
The kings wont change the fact that the tires and wheels are wider then the wheel wells.

What are you concerned with them rubbing? At full stuff?

I did the 0 offsets as well

Yes,that is my concern.
I have not bought tires yet and am leaning towards the BFG KO2 as they are approx. 14lb lighter than the Nitto Ridge Grappler.
On the calculator they are approx. 1.10” wider than stock.

Im still weeks away from wheels showing up it sounds like. So let me know what you decide and how it looks with whatever you go with

Sub harness for the ADD Front Bumper is done, bumper should go on tonight if I can get off work at a decent hour.

 

[DVNT6129]

One more item checked off the list….think the tow hooks may have to go.

 

[PhoenixTRX]

Loving this thread and excited for it's 'deployment/use'!

What will the bed set-up be (assume spares/jack/related) but also for support?

With three rather expensive Toddlers, I'm living through this build by proxy.. LOL!

Since it will be one of my daily drivers, bed is getting a bed rug and retrax for use while I’m running around town. But I’ll stow or remove the retrax and more than likely pull the rug. It’s going to have a a removable chase rack to hold two spares for the TRX, a jack, a nitrogen bottle, and tool box. And then we will have a tie down spot for 1 or 2 40’s for the TT between it and the tailgate

lol, yeah, those tow hooks look wonky...

Isn't there some vertical hooks, that could be placed in the stock location?

Looking forward to some pics, with the wheels on.... Looking for a new front bumper, but all the aftermarket ones I've seen, leave an unpleasing void on the corners, which is fine/acceptable for this type of use... Not so much for a pavement dweller.
