Best lift kit for a no budget limit.....

I've still got other parts on order. Just wait till all this is done.

 

I'll probably be on the truck's 7th iteration by then.

 

You have stuff lined up or is it more of a long-term goal?

 

2wd is cake and can be done in an afternoon. 4x4 takes a bit longer and you'll need a 50 ton press to get the old axles out of the CVs. Best to bring the axles to a shop and let them worry about it.

The install is very straight-forward. Mine's taking extra time because I'm fixing things that I broke as I go through the suspension. I also ground the bumpstops off the frame to make room for some air bumps if space allows. It's going to get a little crowded up front once the secondary bypass shocks are installed.

 

Can't buy them alone as they're specific to the long travel kit. The have the 1.25" uniball like their normal ones but are designed to stick out farther from the truck frame to work with the extended lower control arms.

When it's all done I should get about 14" of wheel travel up front and 18" in the rear. I'm running Giant Motorsports' 64" spring-under conversion kit and will have some 4-tube bypass 3" diameter 18" travel Fox shocks controlling the rear.

 

4x4, and I'm keeping it functional. While I'm building it for the desert, there's very little of it around here. I'll use this for rock crawling in this area so I need those front wheels to motivate.
