BOSS Question

[Jetboy]

I just got off the phone with Toytec. They recently changed the set-up from two to one adjustment ring. They said that they extensively tested the one ring set-up and found that there was no adjustment ring movement. They said that the change was partially due to occasional issues with the two rings binding together and becoming immovable over time.

Sounds reasonable. Mark the ring with a grease marker and watch to see if it moves. I've found that no matter how tight I crank the two rings on my Fox shocks - I can still put a wrench on one and they move together like a single piece. I don't think they will go anywhere with just one ring and the pitch of the threads.

Great idea for reference. Thanks brother.

Single ring on my 2.5 installed a few weeks ago. Notice the silver lock-screw in the ring.

Gave my BOSS a couple days to settle, and made final adjustments ...haven't driven too much. The Toytec spanner wrench broke and they were great about replacing it, however I didn't want to wait. I took two 1/4" pin/center punches and found that they worked 100x better than the spanner wrench. Alignment on Monday!!

Like a dumb ass, I forgot to take stock measurements ...but threads here have stock ranging from 19" - 19.5" front and 21"- 21.5" rear.


Erring on the high side cause bumpers and in the future. Final measurements hub to fender:

FL - 22.5" (3" gain)
FR - 22.5" (3" gain)

RL - 24" (2.5" gain)
RR - 24.5" (3" gain)


From the ground to fender with LT255/80R17 Cooper S/T MAXX:

FL - 38"
FR - 38"

RL - 39.5"
RR - 40"


I'll get some pics tomorrow ...
