Discussion in ' Long Travel Suspension ' started by 4WD FTW , Mar 27, 2019 .
I've searched this forum thoroughly and haven't found much info on the BTF +4.5 4wd LT kit for the second gens. I am seriously interested in this kit, but their website doesn't give much info at all except a claim that it cycles 14". It appears that it comes with the 4wd axles included in the $3500 package, but I can't tell if they're just the shafts or the whole assembly. I've been trying to get in touch with them but so far have not been lucky. Just wondering / hoping that someone else on here has their kit and can offer some insight before I get too excited about it. If it's a complete and legit kit I can have it shipped to me with king comp adj coilovers for just under $5100 which is a steal for a 4x4 kit. Here is the kit I'm referring to: https://btffabrication.com/collections/toyota-1/products/05-15-tacoma-4x4-longtravel Thanks guys
I haven't heard of anyone on here running anything from BTF.
I have found a select few builds. I figure maybe this thread can bring some light to their kit since not many people know about it. Apparently it's a much smaller scale setup than other companies which explains a lot
I ran BTF on my 1st gen tundra and had no complaints, only downside is that you can't run a bypass unless it's their race kit. Brandon did the install and kept my up to date the entire way. Awesome customer service, any issues I had I dropped my truck off and he took care of it asap. I actually messaged him about his tacoma kit for the third gen and he was willing to give a discount because at that time he hasn't fitted it to a third gen yet, not sure if that still applies. Hit him up on Instagram, when I was in the process of doing my tacoma he responded to my emails promptly. They could be busy tho, they run the shop out of their house. I have his number if you want to text him.

You're right about the travel numbers - I figured they were being on the conservative side and could probably cycle a little more with some tinkering. The solo kit is definitely more than I am willing to spend unfortunately. I'm curious what the dirt designs 4x4 kit retails for though. If it's within the price range I would definitely consider it. I figured +4.5 wouldn't be that bad looking with some very large glass. It would definitely need a wider rear end though.
Here’s a couple pics of the lower arms in process and on a truck. I don’t do forums much these days, we’ve actually made some tweaks to the kit that should get us a little better than 14” travel but Can’t say for sure until I try one myself first. I’d rather err on the conservative side. I’ll try to check in here more often, but I’m very available by phone and on our Instagram page.

4WD FTW [OP] said: ↑ Thanks, those arms look sick! I will find some time this week to call you. Can you clarify what all comes with the 4x4 kit? I'd assume all hardware and the axle shafts which I need to install into my OEM joints. And how long does it take you to get a kit shipped out on average? Click to expand...

4WD FTW [OP] said: ↑ Of course. I just need to figure out if i want them in black or blue. To clarify, this kit comes with tubular uca and boxed lca, correct? Click to expand...
The plus 1” forward is only for 2WD correct?

I’m running the same kit on my DD 4runner, I haven’t had the truck that long but have about 5,000 miles on the kit and probably 500 or so Offroad miles.
Brandon will the third gen kit allow you to run a bypass? Or is it coilover and bumps only?

Heim joint pivot upgrade.
Irkutsk Oblast, in particular the capital Irkutsk and the shores of Lake Baikal , is likely Siberia 's top travel destination.
Russian is understood and spoken by all; some members of ethnic minorities (especially the Buryat) are bilingual and speak their native languages with one another.
By plane [ edit ].
Irkutsk Airport ( IKT IATA ) is one of Russia 's most important and receives international flights from Mongolia , China , South Korea , Thailand , and Uzbekistan . Domestic flights are available from most major Russian airports, including: Saint Petersburg , Moscow , Khabarovsk , Yekaterinburg , Vladivostok , and many others.
Despite the importance of Irkutsk Airport, most travellers still arrive via the Trans-Siberian Railway , which stops at (from west to east): Taishet (junction with the Baikal-Amur Mainline ), Nizhneudinsk , Usolye-Sibirskoe , Angarsk , Irkutsk , among other less frequented settlements.
Baikal Highway crosses the region from west to east. A bus from Ulan-Ude connects Irkutsk with Buryatia.
Bratsk and Ust-Orda are accessible via the Baikal-Amur Mainline from the Trans-Siberian Railway junction at Taishet.
Irkutsk Airport is a useful hub to jump off to different parts of the country.
For closer destinations, most will travel by the Trans-Siberian Railway , which leads to Kansk and further Krasnoyarsk in the west and to Ulan Ude in the east.
The Baikal-Amur Mainline , which runs on a parallel track to north of the Trans-Siberian, begins at Taishet in western Irkutsk Oblast and on to Severobaikalsk .
