    ollproofroad.com. Tire size and long travel. Not too considered about cost. More about flexibility.

    allprooffroad need 2 inch longer axles. can use standard sides. Chaos need 6 inch longer axles I think. Need aftermarket sides.

    You might wanna post this up in the suspension forum since it relates directly to LT. I have no experience with LT stuff, but i did have Allpro UCA's and Allpro bumper on my old 2nd gen tacoma and liked the product.

    I've seen a few switch from the allpro (+2 kit only) to total chaos. TC make a +2 & +3.5 kits. I will definitely be going TC or solo

    I have the All Pro +2 new LT/Fox 2.5's on 35's. Have a thread about LCA tolerances being off when I received it. Still waiting on replacements to arrive. I've been beating it up in the meantime though and it's held up well. Other than the fitment being off, which is destroying the bushings, it rides great.

    Wish I'd have went with LT sooner. If I could do it again I'd just go with the Total Chaos +3.5 and 4" mcneil fenders. Got the McNeil 2" fenders and they fit and look amazing. Have to shim the stock bump to keep them from getting destroyed. I knew it was a bit too close and first time I stuff them at speed it crushed the passenger side and cracked it up.

    Right now I'm contemplating just buying the TC 3.5 race kit since I need to re-order fiberglass anyways.

    EDIT: Here's that thread.

    If I hadn’t happened upon a set of King extended travel coilovers at a decent price, I was going to pull the trigger on the TC Race kit +2. Reason being comes down to what they claim as having 2” more ground clearance on the lower control arms. Comparatively, between all the kits, they will pull the same numbers, with the exception of AllPro’s. The difference (.5”) comes from the UCA uniball (what they claimed). The .5” and cheaper price tag was tempting, but if the LCA gives you 2” more ground clearance, I’d take that all day over .5” of wheel travel (confirmed they measure at the wheel).

    Just my $.02 from a non long travel guy.

    My truck has the AP long travel kit (about 7 years ago). Its still on there, but am slowly having to replace heim joints and now CV's. I have been looking around at whats next, from my research on TW, AP is not the way to go based on other peoples experiences. I have had to contact them several times over the past few years and I have nothing bad to say about the service I received. all I can say, is that some of the parts from my kit were discontinued. For example, they told me that the tie-rods are now setup to use stock ends on the extended tube. --it was sold with the heims (I had to order heims through them from another MFG).

    The kit they offer now is slightly different than mine. For example, the solid LCA where mine is just tubes.

    I have had their older style 2nd gen kit for the last 6-7 years.

    Buy a TC kit. The AP kit's geometry and tolerances are just not up to par with TC.

    Old thread I know and I really hate to just bash on a company but AP's products are plain and simply imitation. If you're just after the look of long travel, they may be what you want, depending on your budget. If you want to actually use the suspension, I would highly advise against AP as a whole.

    Agreed. Their kit was a pretty major headache overall. Haven't had any issues with the TC +3.5 Race kit w/ heim uppers yet. The bushing deflection on the AP kit due to poor fitment is just ridiculous.
