Well I'm doing it all myself besides the backhalf; I still don't have the means, space, time or experience to build myself a nice one for my daily. I just havent decided who I'm gonna have build it for me.

Anyone have Grip's (Form & Function) S10 arms?



Grip is a good guy. You should go with a set of his arms. Ill tell him you posted this for ya.

nice!

looks like a good start man.

ooo, and wait a few days before you make a decision on control arms, We have a new design coming out for our uni-joint arms, that are going to be prices the same as most peoples balljoint arms, and they will look super bad ass.

Ill have a final welded up version on friday, and ill post them here when i do.

Hey Taylor I was talkin to you on the phone bout the rear setup...would the mini-coil setup still work being centilevered parallel to the axle? And would coils AND accums make it ride better than with JUST accums?

alot of that is user preference, I personally like using mini coils and accumulators. Others like it without the coils and just accumulators.

you can still mount the cylinders with the mini coils parrallell to the axle, its all in how its installed.

Jon - Cool, thanks brother.

Lee - Thanks man.The pumps are used but in really good condition, cylinders, powerballs, and everything else is brand new.I'm probably just gonna do braided line; we'll see though.Yeah I know man that switchbox is a sick setup, especially with the volt meter in it.The Street Charger is setup for a 24v system and I'm runnin 36v so I'm gonna send it down to 'em and have 'em switch it to 36v.

Tyler,I like your setup.The accumulators make a world of difference in the comfort of your ride.Back when I had pumps on my yota I ran the accumulators straight no springs.One thing I need to point out is the travel of your front cylinders.You need to limit as not to over extend your control arms.I use shocks but some people use different kinds of strap.Good luck.
BaggedMazda87   +1y
Thanks Grip. Yeah I'm planning on running limiting straps for sure.

Do you have any close up pics of your arms or any pics of them installed on customers trucks?
grip   +1y
Only close ups I have are the old style.We have been so busy I havn't had time to take any.I do have a few dimes in my shop Ill snap some pics after work tommorow.

See I've always heard "Grant grant grant grant's the best always perfect fit". But I was disappointed in my caddy buckets from him and the guy I ordered from talked me out of grants fillers for some stamped ones("they fit perfect-even better than grants-no trimming!") that fit like shit! I'd have to cut the fillers into at least 5 pieces to fit. So I was thinkin bout still tryin grants fillers.

And thanks Grip, I'd appreciate it.
