    Hi guys, I just wanted to start a thread for common problems on going with a 4x4 LT KIT. Now I know the general problems with extended axels and such. But i have no clue on the real problems on goin with a 4x4 LT KIT...transfer case problems, travel problems etc... (if that makes any sense). And btw... Iv been looking at LSK 4x4 LT KITS. Anyone one with knowledge to their kits would help a lot!! Thanks guys!!

    Yeah I figured the noise. But I wanted to know of the extended axels would hurt the front diff...

    making the axle shaft longer doesn't hurt the diff

    done right pretty much same as stock, the cv angles are better on a LT setup vs a lifted oem length setup....

    Ohh wow that's awesome to here!! Thanks guys (rock lobsters and basikbiker)

    Hmm.... So since that's pretty much answered. How about just some re-creational 4x4 crawling? I mean not to a point where I'm trying to climb up a gnarly rock or anything but just for some fun. Now would u think going LT would hurt or be a bad choise on going with?

    I'm just thinking if I plan to go camping some where in the middle of no where and I need to crawl a bit. Lol

    Haven't had any issues crawlin around in 4 lo, just replacement axles are a lil pricey but eh pay to play I guess, cv's are real easy to Chang if u break one, takes bout 20 minutes taking your time lol
