    Its because you dont have dual a-arms. When your spindle is mounted on a solid beam the camber will change throughout the travel. A-arms usually eliminate most of that

    Not really, I ordered it new when I was in Germany and waited a few months for it to get delivered by ship and by the time it got there I already had a mid travel setup and 33's for it. The first weekend I had it she got modded.

    Making an alignment tab/lca mount gusset. Probably make some small changes. Im not sure I like how that fits. Just under $20 in 3/16" steel to make all 8 and a little sweat, cant beat that

    Also received a small box today. Not just one sticker but a box of Down South Motorsports and King stickers. You know why? Because Down South Motorsports and King are the shit! :D

    I have heard that Downsouth offers a 10" stroke remote-resi stem-top 2.0 Fox Shock that will work pretty good for something like that. I think they have a name for them but im not sure, I have heard good things about this set up tho

    my point exactly haha, I think you would be better off trying to sell that on here then saving, no one is going to take that trade

    Nothing wrong with a wide kit.

    More travel right? Well unless you go with horizontal uniballs.

    Vertical uniballs..not horizontal..

    But if you do that you really limit your turn radius..
