So I have a 2005 Chevy Silverado pretty much the same as u and I want to know where did u find 2500hd lift spindles because all the ones I found said they were for 1500 and a lot of people say they won’t work on a 2500
CST Suspension. It’s a fabricated spindle. I attached the link. They are for 2500/3500 2wd. On sale right now for $950. Way cheaper than I paid a few years ago. Hope this helps. cstsuspension.com/product-category/2wd-lift-spindles/?orderby=popularity&paged=1&_sft_product_cat=2wd-lift-spindles
I live in Phelan ca where exactly is the spot to ride ?
great video love those days when going out and enjoying. waiting for the weather to warm up 👍
Hey is this an ext cab long bed 2wd? CST claims there CSS-C1-12 only works on short bed 2500HD's but it looks like from the video this may not be the case. I have the same truck(if in fact this is a long bed) and looking to do something similar.
Yes it’s a ext cab long bed 2wd. I believe on the CST website they say you can’t because they claim there’s interference with the brake caliper and the spindle. I checked it when putting it together and there was plenty of clearance. I drive the truck everyday and it works perfect. Only issue is tire clearance. The 315/75/17 required very little clearance. Just cutting the front of the inner fender well a bit and rounding the lower valance. Didn’t really do anything to the back side of the fender well. Hope this helps. Let me know if I can help you with anything else. 🤟
Thank you for the quick reply. Your truck looks great. I'll get mine together in the next few months and definitely going with CST. I'm assuming with the 1inch lift block in the rear, you didn't need a longer shock? Also, does it sit rear high, rear low, or pretty much level?@@mooneyes109
Yeah the front of the truck sits at 42 1/2 inches and the rear is 42 inches. Measuring from the ground through the center of the wheel to the top side of the fender well. It has all stock replacement shocks from Bilstien. No oversized anything. It’s a very simple set up and it looks great. If you want if completely level you can achieve it by just spinning the adjustable bolt down on the keys. No special tools other than a ratchet/socket and a measuring tape. I wanted the front end just slightly higher than the rear. Hope this helps! 👍
Mantap bang
Is this an offer a place and where is it?
Look in the comments below, there’s details how to get there 👍
heck of a good start on having some fun
Nothing is more fun then a vw buggy
Absolutely, no doubt! 🤟
How close is the wheel and tire from the spindle? Also are those method wheels 0 offset?
The wheels have 0 offset. 4.75 of backspacing. It’s just a standard stock wheel, nothing custom. As far as the wheel clearance to the spindle it’s made for the truck so clears no problem, but the top of the upper A-arm that that is actually closer to the tire than the spindle has about 2 1/4 inches from the middle of the top of the tire which is actually to widest part. Still zero issues with the set up.
@@mooneyes109 Thanks for the reply. Truck looks nice!
Thank you, I appreciate it! 👍
How rough does the suspension feel riding in the desert? I am looking to get a 4 seater hopefully soon.
This buggy uses essentially a stock vw bug rear shock. It’s fine for just cruising around and mild climbing but much more it’s maxed out. I’m assuming but I’m pretty sure it uses factory bug torsion springs along with possibly aftermarket spring plates. With two people over anything aggressive it will max out extension and compression. Hope this helps but if you really need a lot of wheel travel those buggy’s are out the with much more capable shocks. This one is just an old basic buggy that works! 👍
Nice Setup! would go for UCA's?
Thanks, I didn’t really see the need for it but possibly. The bushings were fine with new ball joints. The alignment is perfect so no need for a +\- ball joint. I’m not opposed to a better upper but the factory works for me. 👍
Nothing like driving a VW buggy, stick shift makes it all the fun. Those new canams and Razrs look nice, but now shifting. Thats no fun...
Yes it definitely a cool experience rowing the gears and grabbing second getting a little loose. 👍
Buggy’s are awesome! Adjust the valves and an X brace/ tubes on the hood area! To much frame flex happens without the X brace! Be safe out there!
Fortunately this buggy is super stiff!!! 👍
Thank you for sharing this !! I almost forgot this sound and feeling. I had a 1961 Baja Bug back around the mid 70's and hearing and seeing this. I love these buggies, this was the beginning of the growth of OHV !!!
Yeah it’s definitely a blast to rip around!
Looks cold on the other side, going up lone pine canyon towards Wrightwood! I used to borrow my sister's Baja when I was about 16 years old, and well ... let's say it is amazing it didn't get rolled, and we would wash it all up, like we didn't take it out to play ... heh heh!
Man I miss this stuff,very cool love a simple VW rail.I grew up in the AZ desert messing around and learning to drive in off road VW’s.love taking a fast corner hitting the cut brakes or kicking the clutch and sliding in some dirt!!!
That’s cool to hear, yes it’s definitely fun and an easy way to get out there on a budget! 👍
When simple was so much better!
Yes it is simple, but it still makes you scratch your head sometimes! 👍
Nice! I've got a '67 1600 (technically now a 1641) that I'm rebuilding. Would love to ride sometime. We're out of Oceanside and go to Anza, Barstow, Death Valley all winter on the weekends.
Nice, I will be in Barstow this weekend. Hopefully run into you sometime out there when you get your buggy running! 👍
Please please make more of these
And please make them longer and unedited from cold start to shut down. Oh - and my favorite part is being able to see your footwork! You’re a good driver.
Great POV video. How about some more...
Definitely will get more uploaded!
Fantastic! When I was a kid, I absolutely loved riding in the buggy with my dad. Eventually, I want to provide my kids with a similar experience. I'll be watching for future videos! May the runs be fun and safe, the smiles be huge and the memories be unforgettable 👍
Father like son. I did that with my kids. Great memories even when things went wrong.
Sweet! I like the mix of terain, especially the sandy sections.
Nice running rail. Thanks for the ride.
Great video! Thinking of doing that after selling my travel trailer. My van is just about finished a camper conversion.
Wish we could take our buggies to barstow, looks awsome
Should do a walk around of the buggy
Show your buggy I have one 1776
Will do! Plan on posting again in a few days.
i cant beleve you were putting your son in danger like that you should have cps called on you oh wait your being a dad doing your job spending time with him doing cool shit keep it up man your son will always rember that and look back and smile!!!!!!!
Thank you! Looking forward to this riding season. 🤟
Is this hodge rd
Yes it is!!! 👍
Thanks @rodneymctavish, it’s off the 15 and the 138 exit. Going North up the pass you get off the exit and look across the road too the right next to the freeway entrance to get back on, there’s a access road called Santa Fe Fire Road. Take it to the Railroad tracks and everyone parks there. That little engine owes me nothing! I kick its ass every time and it loves it!!! 🤟
I feel the same with my buggy it has a lil 1776 in it, runs strong and is sooo much fun!!
Thee ol 1600 sounds healthy!!
What exit you take off the 15 to get to this spot???? Id like to take my Buggy out there!
Take the I 15 north exit for hwy 138 go straight thru intersection while getting off I15 dirt road in other side follow dirt road till you see train trestle and park
@@Chrisjamesbowe ok awesome, i always wondered where that lil road went!! Any cool hills ti climb? or is it just mostly flat stuff?
A little of both what do you ride
Hills are short but still fun and close by
@@Chrisjamesbowe , Desert Dunebuggy , an a kx250 2smoker. You could see videos of my buggy on my RUclips page it’s a beater, but I love climbing shit!
I ride there to I live up in victorville I found a way to take dirt road from my front door to the pass
Please make more of these! Love the view so cool seeing all the controls while you’re driving like the pedals and stuff. Can you also include a cold start next time with this view? Subscribed for many more unedited videos like this. I love it!!
Thank you, will be posting more as we go out. Hopefully try to add what I can to make things better, I’m new to uploading and shooting stuff. Thank you 👍
@@mooneyes109 please keep them coming!
Super video-perfect point of view. Make more. Feels like we're riding in there with you.
Thanks! Will try to make more videos.
