    No real power difference. If anything maybe a bit more drag because of the added height but it's nothing significant.

    I have stock ones still, these are just pics I found on the internet. Total Chaos used to sell the whole midtravel kit iirc but Fabtech used to sell uppers and Downey used to sell lowers at least but Downey went kaput a few years back. Our only option is to find them used.

    :rolleyes:
