Baja Runner Long Travel Build

Sound deadening completed. Night and day difference in road noise as far as I’m concerned. Extremely satisfied. Took me a total of about 4 hours start to finish.

Here’s a link to a video my brother put together of the truck late last year. Don’t think it’s been posted on here yet

Jacob Russell on Instagram: “Quick trip to #ocotillowells yesterday with the siblings. Got this #4runner dialed in pretty well now #totalchaos #ssbuilt…”

She boogies pretty good dude! Lol wife is wanting the kit too now:banana:

funny how good a smaller travel kit will run with solid tuning vs a stupid travel number kit with terrible shock valving.

All over really. Most of it was shot between Holmes camp and devils slide in in the various canyons and washes. Some of in in San Felipe wash. Some of it over by pole line.

Thanks. I was wanting to do a similar run. Not that I am in the same league but to see my suspension in action would be neat.

I do have a GPX file of where I drove that day if you’re using leadnav or something similar. Would be happy to send it over. It’s just a large loop with random back and forth lines where we filmed but it would give you exactly where I went haha.

Your build is looking really badass!

I have a question about your iPad mount. I tried a google search for 3D Designs diamond mount but I'm mostly getting wedding rings :( Would you be able to post a link to where you got yours from? Thanks in advance!

I stepped on myself with that. 3D designs is stuff I used on my bmw. The diamond mount and arm I used are 67 designs [emoji2359][emoji23]. Will edit that now. Link to their website and Hondos website as well below

The deed is done. GFC will be ready near the end of June as long as production goes according to plan. Trying to figure out what ladder to go with now. I’ve been told a hatch ladder is the better option than GFC’s. Leaning towards the C4 one at the moment.

New rear shocks are done finally. 3.0 2 tube bypass with a finned resi. Install later in the week when I get some time but they look to cool to not post something now

They’re in, and rather large. But I’m very happy with them [emoji1786]. Testing and tuning this weekend

Great build page! How dd you disconnect the KDSS? Did you just strap the pistons or did you remove the entire system?

Not to hijack...but I let my rear piston hang for now, with the rear sway bar off. I plan to rotate the rear piston and strap it up. I am going to remove the front sway soon and drive it to see if I am OK with no bars. I have fairly stiff front and rear springs, so my body roll might not be too bad. I also have not gotten any KDSS light yet.

I helped remove two KDSS systems recently. The hard lines are a pain...ended up just cutting them in multiple place to get them out. I'll remove mine eventually.

You hit the nail on the head. Both my pistons are just hanging as well. I’m running no sway bars currently. My body roll isn’t terrible per day but I’m putting both back on after removing the kdss system, so long as the truck isnt sold before I get the chance too. It is listed for sale if there’s any interest on here.
