Can we all take a second to appreciate how much time and effort went into this video! Thanks for all the information. 🍻
Agreed!
For reals!
I drive neither Toyota or IFS but if I did this would be a really valuable insight. Basically the quality we all want to make ourselves but never have the patience to do. 😅
Love this guys passion to spread Yota knowledge. Thanks bro!
Amen!!
This is one of the best comparison videos on KZhead
Finally not a reviewer who just says "its great" but a breakdown of design and parts used with positives and negatives.
I would be surprised if this guy doesn’t blow up. Underrated for sure.
Excellent comparison!!! I really appreciated your nuanced summary of why you decided to switch out. It was great to hear how your style of driving impacted your decision. I like the idea of prepping a car to go fast but there is a limit to how many dollars I am willing to throw at things. Great job!!!
This was so clear, concise, and thorough! I really enjoyed watching - thanks for making it!
The most in depth comparison that I've seen. Simple, concise, excellent. Subbed.
Subscribed. Please do not stop making videos on the FJ. I enjoyed every bit of your two videos. Very appreciated.
Have watched your videos to date and subscribed. Thinking out loud here, it's one thing that you understand all this, it's quite another that you have the ability to relate it to all of us. Thanks, and well done.
Very impressive. Hard to find such a detailed comparison elsewhere!
You’re doing amazingly detailed videos. Keep up the good work.
This is a master class on control arms. Great analysis and summary
One of the best videos I’ve ever seen on this subject thank you very much for taking the time in doing it. You help me make my decision on which one I will be going with when I upgrade my suspension an upper and lower control arms. Thank you very much.
Real world comparison! The best bro!
I am absolutely speechless.... Thanks for all the information!
Outstanding effort and the results show....Thank you so much for your efforts....Please keep these type vids coming!
Incredibly comprehensive. Anyone could benefit from this, not just Toyota people. What a great series.
You are, without a doubt, one of the best guys on KZhead to fully explain everything toyota. No bs no byious. Just the facts. Thank you
What a brilliant and technically informative video. Well done, you really know your stuff
I am so impressed with this video. Well done sir.
You just made me feel much better about my purchase of my dirt king set up. Reading and researching the differences I chose dirt king because of the reputation and price along with their design. But I didn’t know anything like this about them. Thank buddy
Such a rad comparison. Your doin excellent work!
Rad video man! Thanks for the explanation and in depth comparison.
wow, finally a simple understanding of things. This video is amazing 10/10. Please make more.
I appreciate the effort put into this. I subscribed. Killer work!
Best FJ setup!!
Thanks so much. You really cut through the fluff and break everything down with facts. I'll be installing a long travel suspension this summer as soon as I take delivery of my new TRD Offroad this summer. Great job presenting this information!
Great info! These are out of my budget, but it's fun to learn the technical points anyway.
Great video! Thanks for the time and effort you put in to this!
This is by far the instruction I’ve ever seen.
Great analysis and review. High quality video production as well.
Great vid man! Appreciate the hard work put into it! And sweet FJ btw! You got a new subscriber here! Hope one day I’ll get good at making informational and entertaining vids like you! I have 4th Gen 4Runner that I’ve been tinkering with the idea of doing a long travel setup in the future, this video sure helped on knowing a bit more about these two companies, thanks!
Awesome video. This is the first video I have seen with proper comparison and testing on off road products. You got something good here man! Hope you keep it up!
Thanks a lot for the support man!
You do a great job of explaining the technical information so that most could digest and use it to make decisions. Quality suspension manufacturers should invite your opinion and those that make nothing more than a " lift Kit" for mall crawling big tires may fear it.. The manufacturer should just be honest about their intentions but the price of a kit pretty much tells that story. Anyone should see that the time it takes you to compile your data is major. I doubt many lift companies invest this much but installing and reinstalling parts, raising vehicles and all involved is a lot of work and will reflect in the price of a system. The Yota guys especially should really appreciate your work..
I subbed! You deserve it and more. Very detailed and precise information....
Awesome vid. Always admired your FJ
Great video bro. Very informative. Can’t wait to see more.
Awesome stuff. Thank you for sharing!
thanks for all the effort to make this video. excellent!
As a novice, you helped more than many shops, earned not just a like but easy subscribe. I hope you are getting commissioned. Lol
I love your english! Very relaxing to listen too
Awesome job!!! I really appreciate the effort you put into this video!!!
thank you for your service
Thanks for the great comparison
seriously one of the best technical comparisons. very thorough, as if you’re an engineer
Thank you. I am actually mechanical engineer by trades 😄
Thank you so much for such a detailed and well thought out comparison. I can't imagine how much time went into this effort, but wow! This has to be the best explanation and critique out there. Bravo Sir! I've subscribed!
Appreciate the kind words man. Yeah took me a long long time. But luckily working on my FJ and my camera are both my hobbies so I enjoyed the process!
love your videos, might be some dirt king in my 4runners future
Beautiful video with great information. This takes countless hours of planning, filming, and editing!
Thank you sir. And yeah it was a lot of work😂
Really good job. Gave me a lot of info for building my kit.
Bravo on a great comparison! My 93 Hilux runs Total Chaos 3.5 with triple bypass so I am not in the market for either of these kits but I sincerely enjoyed your video. Excellent job going over the technical issues on each of these and all the 'little' details to consider.. Liked, Subd' and looking forward to your next video.
Great videos, thanks for putting this together.
You are my favorite professor ever! 😀
Thank you as this is the video I have been looking for
Thank you for doing this video and all the work that went into it. Please keep making more videos, stock vs Lt would be great to see also. Cheers 🍺
Thanks. I appreciate that! And yes few more videos are in the making!
this is an amazing watch, thanks for this.
Bravo, well done my friend!
Killer video and comparison. Nice work.
Turned it into a physics lesson! I'm following this guy!
This is an awesome video thanks! so much detail.
Please make more vidoes like these, love the video🤟🏻
dude!!! epic review! thanks!!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise.
amazing content. very well put together video!
Yes i would love to see a future video on the major differences of LT IFS vs. stock style lifts, and this video was well composed and you were very informative on all the hot topics of the comparison
Without rubbing a LT kit, im just putting in a UCA, should i do the dirt king Heim or bushings version? Potentially in the future adding the gear for a LT kit
Would you recommend the Heim join UCA for Dirt king or Bushing UCA? Im not looking to running long travel, for now, maybe in the future. What are your thoughts?
Yes we want long travel comparison to factory setup!!
The amount of time, setup and filming this took. Plus CRISP editing. I’m in.
Great job my man! Something to think about when Dirt King pushes the wheel forward they limit the cv angles since it’s no longer centered, which is why their axel shaft is longer to help accommodate that change addressing the plunge as well.
That is good to know, thanks!
Pushing the wheel forward helps fit larger tires and increases the approach angle.
Really informative video!
Fantastic job!
What an excellent comparison! Very well done... Thank you. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you sir!
Ah answers to my questions, thanks
I like your fj front bumper!!
Brilliant!
Awesome vid my dude.
the way to do. thank you
Really enjoyed the video very well-thought-out lot of research. I would like to see a comparison between the dirt King in the total chaos. Thanks
Im glad i found this before I bought dirt king LCAs I also got element hard UCAs
So much good information.. I like it 👌
in regards to the cv axle topic. When you have a cv axle that is shorter and slides inside the inner tripod housing aka the housing on the differential not the hub. when it is extended out while in a full doop situation if you are heavy on the gas pedal or get into a bouncing situation it can shatter that entire inside housing . Yes I have def done that before. Not on my FJ but I have done it several times on a lifted 2 door tahoe bc the lift it had caused the cv's to be at a bad angle just sitting normal but when it got to offroading in any situation such as I described. BOOM... I have installed the Total Chaos +2 inch long travel on my 2010 fj and I love it.
Keep up the great work. Subscribed
Great video with explanations.
Well done!
really well presented!
Would love to see another video with the Camburg Flat tune design upper control arms with the heim and uniball design
very informative video learned a lot from you.
Need more scientific approaches like this in mechanics
Your videos are incredibly informative, thank you! I'd love to see a comparison between BTF, Marlin Crawler's RCLT, and JD Fab's LT kit!
Thanks. Those 3 are all the newer and more “clever” design kits. Would love to get my hands on one some day.
amazing video!
Yes long travel vid
I have a 3rd gen T4R and am highly considering LT. A comparison video between LT and stock would be great. Thanks for all of your time and info!
Awesome video
Amazing video!
Good analysis video
I am running Camburg long travel ,It"s super solid.Just like you said, down side is the clearence of lower control arm is not very good.
Awesome video, thank you for the info
Great video! Thank you very much!
Great job
Hi Kai, I really enjoy all your videos. I always find them informative and insightful. I have a 2008 GX470. It sits on 34’s (285/75/17 BFG ko2’s) and a 2-1/2 lift. I use it as my daily driver. It has impeccable on road manners given its configuration. So, I'm hesitant to go overboard with modifications. Like most wheelers, I enjoy the occasional rock crawling trip, but the majority of my wheeling just relates to overlanding, with trips across Colorado, Idaho, the Pacific NW and Alaska. I am considering a trip through Mexico to Central America soon too. Given the distances and varied terrain I cover, I’m primarily focused on reliability and durability on trails that could be much more isolated than some of the more popular trails. I’m also looking for increased wheel travel for the more challenging sections of trails though, so I considered long-travel kits. I recently rewatched your video on Toyota ifs long travel kits. in your opinion should I even consider a long travel suspension given my type of driving? How does long travel compare to the factory set up?
I been eyeing the Camburg Setup for my 2007 v8 4runner
Great video!
Dude great video. Subbed Liked... I am looking to do this on my Tacoma in the future.
