I’m trying out my prototype rear coil. Suppose to settle down to 2” of rear lift.

I posted this in another thread about abs and trac control. I installed this custom switch and tapped into the 4wd control until to trick the truck to think it has the locker on. This allow me to turn abs off which you want when wheeling at speeds. You want to be able to lock up the brakes vs abs trying to kick in.

Also having the trac off allows you to spin the tires with out the truck trying to control it with the ebrake.

This is a link to my video on Instagram. There’s a diagram there as well.

Dom Ruangnol on Instagram: “Get the switch from @cruiserheadsmiami. Easy process. Quick shipping as well. .. .. If you guys want the diagram for to wire this up. Swipe…”

Well since King decided to not put the bypass exactly where I designed them to put it, I had to notch the lower links to clear one of the bypass tubes. It clears the stock links fine but it’s real close and with my links being a little wider then Oem. I had to. Or make new links. But I don’t want to hand fab anymore. Takes too long. Next links will be all cad designed as we just got the 4Runner CAD files from SEMA

Alright. First prototype rear kdss track bar. Going to test fit it this weekend hopefully. But soon. I’m sure I’ll have to tweak something.

But what I did was take as many measurements from all angles. The mis alignment widths for the Oem track bar are 50mm. I only had 40mm mis alignments for these heims but I will use shims/ washer to fine tune. This actually will help me figure out if I need more or less bends by being able to shift the track bar towards front or back of truck.

I know there’s already a track bar out there but it’s the ugliest thing in the world. Welds look scary even tho I’m sure they are good structurally. It’s just not for me. Plush I think 7/8th wall DOM with the heims threaded in is a way stronger option and lighter.

The best part is this is not even the cool part that I figured out how to get even more travel out for the kdss system. I’m working on the design of that said part and the patents now. Can’t believe not even icon did this yet.

If you need a second test subject let me know.:thumb3:
 
On and off on and off on and off. Been doing this a lot lately trying to figure this kdss track bar bind deal.....

I test fitted today. Almost worked. But I totally figured out how v2 needs to be. Needs to be simpler with less bends and a special part I can’t show or talk about yet until the patent pending at the very least is in order.

I still can’t show the part yet but I got a prototype of it on jt’s way to me by next week to test fit. But In theory using simple math. You will be able to run a str8 track bar and extended travel shocks and get full droop and more with out any contact on parts and no fear what so ever if the kdss shock inverting itself.

Teaser with the math lol. I’m not even going to explain what it is because I’ll end up giving it away. Patents are being handled now. Looking to license this to all the companies.

I’ll start a whole new post / thread about this part when it’s time to show off.

Scanning the truck today making my own files. Sema files were garbage.

I wanted to put the switch pros in an area that both the driver and passenger can reach it.

Such a perfect spot in my opinion.

I added a bezel so I can push buttons with out looking. I’ll do it by feel. Yes I’ll have to remember where’s what. But this location is perfect for me so I can access it from both sides of the runner.

Another prototype track bar. Since the kdss drop blocks fix the clearance issue, I’m doing a str8 str8 bar. Female thread end 7/8” heim joints. Final track bar will actually be machine from solid piece. This one I just welded the threaded ends on to the solid bar. 1” diameter for maximum clearance. The final track bar will actually be all machined from one piece and will be 1” oD solid bar and probably going to do stainless.

Also installed the switch pro module into the engine bay. I have a bunch of Baja designs leds laying on the garage floor just need time to get them mounted. For sure putting a 30” onyx behind the upper part of the lower front grill.

And last I’m concerting the front end to trd “super” pro lol. I already have the piece to stick on but I’m doing something different.
