    Hey how’s it going guys. I want to get as much travel possible without cutting through my bed. What could I do. I want to run deavers f67 under the axle but I think I would have to cut the bed. I want this truck to be a sleeper but perform like a prerunner

    I feel like this set up is more for rock climbing. I want more of a prerunner go like hitting whoops at a speed.

    You seemed to imply you wanted as much as you could get without cutting the bed when you said:


    That's what I laid out for you. If you want more pre-runner travel (more than a 12" shock), you're going to need to cut the bed.

    Well if you got deep enough pockets you could go cantleave,or you could go outside the frame, you’re gonna have to run spacers and will most likley have to stay with a 2.0 shock.

    with a 1" body lift and a slight chop to the frame, you can clear a 14" 2.5 outside the frame.

    With 2” spacers and a frame notch you can technically fit a 2.5 bypass but you’ll rub the shock when articulating. Guys with a Tundra axle which is 3” wider per side still rub 2.5 triple bypasses.

    This is as good as you’ll get with stock bedsides.

    Tire size and up travel will be very limited unless you run fiberglass or tub out the wheel wells like in that video.
