    After you threw a fit, accused "TW" of being full of misinformation and misread the question, calling me a "cum guzzler" etc.

    You flew off the handle in the beginning of this thread for no reason.

    Well I went back to the beginning and re read the thread. @jberry813 quoted people and corrected information without giving anyone a hard time. He then had a post that said what the eff with no quotes saying there was some bad info. I am not seeing the problem with his info or how he did it. If you are mad because someone corrected info that sucks for you. Should just use it as a chance to learn.

    OP, get the extended travel coil overs out of the gate, I'm going to assume you don't know nor want to take apart your shock to later make it extended travel. So either save up for it all but once or just do the front then later do the back..

    There are ways around not getting upper control arm but for your average joe might as well wait till you can do it all

    Also another thing no one has mentioned really is that without UCA if you lift it very much your alignment will be off

    OP...good luck with your endeavor.
    If you have more questions, feel free PM me. Clearly there are people in this thread who like to toot their literacy skills despite their obvious lack of shock knowledge. And with that...I'm out.

    That seems like a big selling point for Kings, do Fox, or ADS have a similar capability?

    Looking at my Icons I don't see a spacer to remove, or am I missing something else?

    Omg ok, I clearly have less posts so MY BAD. :rolleyes:

    OP asked if extended travel 2.5 shocks would work with his stock control arms. They WILL rub, correct? Please quote what I said that was wrong? Not trying to argue, I'd like to see where "I" was wrong. Just tying to learn something here. :popcorn:

    Please stop with the insults.

    It seems you're the only one allowed to throw insults. Post count matters here lol. It's like high school here sometimes with the leg humping boyfriends smacking each other on the ass lol. :rofl:

    I have more faith in Jason's guesses and assumptions on suspension and long travel than most people have in their facts.

    @B Wess08 why not just wait and install everything all at the same time when you have all the parts? you say it'll just be a month or so till you can swing the UCAs and rear leaf pack... It'll at least save you one trip to the alignment store and some extra work :thumbsup:
