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...
BTF Brandon said: ↑ 4x4 kit comes with assembled axles to make things easier on the customer. They’re near impossible to get apart without destroying cv joints. Click to expand...

BTF Brandon said: ↑ Yes but the shocks are obviously not included in the kit price. 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?

Voronezh stations are designed to detect and track ballistic and cruise missiles and other aerodynamic objects.
On the Internet and in print, you can find the wrong name for these stations - over-the-horizon or over-the-horizon radar.
Since December 1 of last year, they have become part of the Russian Aerospace Defense Forces.
The main feature of the Voronezh radar station is its high factory readiness.
The first to develop and put into operation a meter-range radar station "Voronezh-M". The next development was the Voronezh-DM radar. The third radar data model is Voronezh-VP.
The first steps towards the creation of radar stations with VZG were taken in 1986 during the creation of the radar station DO "Selenga".
VZG provides installation period for these radar stations no more than 18-24 months.
The stations consist of 23 units of sets of equipment.
Voronezh uses hardware and design solutions that allow assembling a system from a set of ready-made factory assemblies with characteristics that meet the operational and tactical requirements of the installation site. All issues of energy resource management are solved programmatically and technologically. Built-in control and high-tech control system reduce maintenance costs.
Service personnel are accommodated in standardized containers that have a system for ensuring temperature characteristics.
The designers have worked out the range of cabinets - "Voronezh" has 12 types of cabinets, of which the cabinets with transmitting and receiving equipment and the AFD control system are serial. There are 22 non-serial cabinets on the radar station of the Voronezh subsidiary, they were placed in 3 containers, in which the equipment for monitoring temperature characteristics is also installed.
Receiving and transmitting equipment in the "Voronezh" radar station is located in the large antenna complexes of the VZG. They are ready for transport and assembly units.
The installation of these complexes takes place on fast assembly support structures. This leads to the rapid construction of an active antenna pattern. This block-complex assembly reduces losses in the transmission and reception paths, reduces the temperature and, in general, gives a high indicator of the efficiency of the antenna device. In addition, this layout allows for upgrades. Emitters are located at the end of each container.
The radar antenna DO SPRN "Voronezh" uses a method of creating subarrays for reception, which reduces the amount of equipment used without lowering the characteristics of the antenna pattern. The method is implemented on the mutual overlap of sublattices and the use of special amplitude distributions in them.
The stages of the transistor design of the transmitting amplifiers in the AFD interact in a "hot collector" manner. This allows the transmitting equipment to be cooled with "outboard" air coming through the ventilation equipment, which is part of the technical equipment. This "live" ventilation made it possible to abandon the overall thermal stabilization and cooling systems.
The hot air cooling circuit is distributed to all antenna boxes using an integrated air duct system.
The temperature indicators on the end switches of the air ducts of the installed modules are on average no more than 45 degrees. At low temperatures, in winter, the circuit is closed, and warm air is used to heat the antenna boxes. Warm air in the circuit is diluted with cold outside air to maintain a certain temperature.
The equipment of the receiving channels has not only digitization of signals, but also built-in processors for initial digital processing and verification control of the receiving paths. This approach saves computing facilities "Voronezh" and channels for transmitting information, and reduces the loss of processed signals, using digital methods to stabilize the non-identity of the used phased array channels.
Digital signal processing occurs at the carrier output frequency with the following allocation of quadrature elements, which made it possible to qualitatively reduce the loss of processed information.
Computing equipment used for primary and secondary processing is made on a "server" computer with an open architecture of information processing in real time. The computer is unified for all types of promising topics. It has two types of processor cells and 2 buses: the VME bus and the user bus. Constructive computer box - "Euromechanics". The performance of the solution is up to one hundred billion operations per second. The computer has unlimited possibilities for upgrading and expanding. The occupied area is half of a standard cabinet for Voronezh equipment. Consumes 1.5 kW / h. Service is not provided. Guaranteed operating time 80 thousand hours.
Functional and technical control is performed as peripheral coprocessors, which are built into technical equipment, combined with a central coprocessor by a high-speed interface. This made it possible to reduce the volumetric dimensions of the equipment, increase the reliability of the information flow and functional control.
The Voronezh radar station uses programmed regulation of the potential in the sector of responsibility for range, angles and time, the mode of saving consumed resources.
Software adjustment with these modes makes it possible to quickly change the power consumption of the radar station in normal, combat and readiness for combat use modes, to equalize the energy consumption in the working sector of the radar station.
During the installation of the head radar of the DO SPRN "Voronezh-DM" near the city of Armavir, for its power supply, a power line with a total length of more than eight kilometers was extended, communications and roads were built.
At the installation site of the radar, a checkpoint was set up, a BVM, facilities for water intake, an electrical substation, a fire station, and an underground shelter were installed. The premises have been modernly decorated. For the personnel of the radar, they created quite comfortable conditions for living and performing combat missions. For recreation and physical training, there is a training tower, a volleyball court and a hundred-meter course for training fire station personnel. The entire area is lit and fenced around the perimeter. Seedlings of trees and shrubs have been planted.
Since the start of construction, mid-2006, a set of works has been carried out on 58 units of construction projects. Completion of construction - 2009. Contractor - USS No. 7 Spetsstroy RF.
The main characteristics of the radar "Voronezh":
- consumption power: "DM" - 0.7 MW, "VP" - up to 10 MW;
- detection range: "DM" 2500-6000 kilometers, "VP" - 6 thousand kilometers;
- target development: "DM" up to 500 units.
Voronezh series modifications:
- The Voronezh-M early warning radar was built in 2006, designation 77Ya6. It is a low-potential VHF station;
- The Voronezh-DM early warning radar was built in 2011, designation 77Ya6-DM. It is a mid-potential station of the decimeter range;
- The Voronezh-VP early warning radar is planned to be completed in 2012, designation 77Ya6-VP. It is a high-potential broadband station of possibly millimeter-wave range.
Economic indicators of station construction:
- Armavir Voronezh-DM - 2.85 billion rubles;
- Pioneer Voronezh-DM - 4.4 billion rubles;
Location of stations "Voronezh":
- "Voronezh-M" is located in the Leningrad region, since 2009 has been on alert, provides control of the territory from Svalbard to Morocco;
- the head "Voronezh-DM" of 2 modular design, located in the Krasnodar Territory, has been on alert since 2009, provides control of the territory from North Africa to Southern Europe;
- 1st serial "Voronezh-DM", located in the Kaliningrad region, has been on alert since 2011, provides control of the territory of the western direction, duplicates the radar station in Baranovichi;
- "Voronezh-VP", located in the Irkutsk region, in 2012 will take up combat duty, under construction, will provide control of the territory of the southeastern direction, it is planned to install an antenna module in the southern direction (2014).
Planned construction of Voronezh stations:
- "Voronezh-VP" near Pechora in 2015;
- "Voronezh-VP" in the Murmansk region, in 2017;
- "Voronezh-VP" in Azerbaijan, in 2017, taking up combat duty in 2019.
Processes of modernization of the russian early warning system.
Radar "Voronezh-DM" near Barnaul, put on duty in 2017 The implementation of a large-scale program of modernization of the Russian missile attack warning system (EWS) continues. Construction of new facilities of various kinds is underway and the renovation of existing ones is underway. By
Source: Aeronautica Militare1. The main stages of AWACS development The main problem arising in the design of AWACS is that (in order to obtain large target detection ranges), the radar must have an antenna of a large area, and, as a rule, there is nowhere to place it on board
In addition to over-the-horizon and over-the-horizon radars, the Soviet early warning system used a space component based on artificial earth satellites (AES). This made it possible to significantly improve the reliability of information and detect ballistic missiles
Over-the-horizon radar SPRN of the PRC, located on the slope of the mountain Anti-missile defense of the PRC. Despite the cessation of anti-missile weapons work in 1980, the design of early warning missile radars in China has continued. Experience gained during the creation and

A direct, nonstop flight between Skypark Airport (BTF), Bountiful, Utah, United States and Voronezh International Airport Chertovitskoye (VOZ), Voronezh, Russia would travel a Great Circle distance of 5,803 miles (or 9,338 kilometers).
A Great Circle is the shortest distance between 2 points on a sphere. Because most world maps are flat (but the Earth is round), the route of the shortest distance between 2 points on the Earth will often appear curved when viewed on a flat map, especially for long distances. If you were to simply draw a straight line on a flat map and measure a very long distance, it would likely be much further than if you were to lay a string between those two points on a globe. Because of the large distance between Skypark Airport and Voronezh International Airport Chertovitskoye, the route shown on this map most likely appears curved because of this reason.
Try it at home! Get a globe and tightly lay a string between Skypark Airport and Voronezh International Airport Chertovitskoye. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!
