    Curious does anyone know how much travel you can pull out of the Chevy 63s I’m running some with some 2.0x12 shocks

    You can cycle them if you take out the extra leafs with just the main / bushing leafs in them and check for droop and bump heights.

    I used to max out 14s on my crawlers, doubted I had the weight of a 14 bolt and 42s to droop them out.

    I’m assuming 14 is the best until you run into driveline issues

    Driveline shouldn't be a limiting factor - there are linked trucks with stock driveshafts. I've got 16" and no binding at all.

    I’m assuming it’s a good amount the 63s should allow for a ton of travel

    They're good if you want droop only / crawly terrain stuff - 62" deaver spring under is a lot better if you want to go fast in the desert. You'll get 16 bumped and strapped - I'm somewhere around 16-16.5
