    6inch lift sitting on bilstein coilovers. Lexus is300 studs in front to keep stock wheels, general grabber red letters, nfab front bumper.
    Has anybody done a bed cage with long shocks/ coilovers with a db 6 inch lift kit? I got some cash burning a hole in my pocket and I decided not to get another track bike. I love the height of my db lift and I'm not getting rid of it. Houston floods every time a toilet overflows so I need my ground clearance. Anybody got some wicked ideas for some off the wall suspension?

    You can fit 12-14s under the bed with relocation and a custom hoop. Youll need a full leaf pack, ditch the blocks.

    No need to pop thru the bed without a spring under setup.

    Check out @Glueman build for a great way to make a DB perform.

    Exactly, more travel, less price and it is plenty strong design with large contact patch on frame and 3/16 50,000 psi steel construction.

    Would you happen to have a part number for the shock that would be long enough for this with a 6 inch lift
