    From my understanding its camburgs gen 1 first gen kit. Upper and lower bjs, unis at the frame and bushings on the uppers
    There gen 2 kit is the one most have which is the uniball upper bj lower, unis at the frame and bushing uppers, with the ability for 2 shocks.

    Oh, I see. Like I said that was just my understanding. Probably inaccurate. I know I looked at a few bj upper camburg kits when I was in the market but held out for a uniball kit.

    Chris, just ditch the burg kit when the time comes and have dtf make a kit for it :cool:

    Coilover Adapters
    We are the only company to offer a billet aluminum adapter so that you can use your existing aftermarket coilovers with our LT kit. It is a good way to get the additional travel, track width and strength of our LT kit, without having to buy new coilovers up front.

    what

    The spacer allows you to use a stock length coilover with a longtravel kit, however you won't be able to pull as much travel as with the correct length coilover.

    Wouldn't a spacer like this just limit up travel? I don't see why down travel would be affected...I mean, obviously it's limiting travel, but I can understand why someone would do this...LT kit +install + new shocks + odds and ends start adding up...it would be nice to be able to do it a step at a time.

    I'm just gonna go ahead and save up for everything however.

    Yeah it's in the product description also:

    "You can always upgrade to the LT specific coilovers at a later date to gain an additional 1” of travel."
