    Emailed Depo Racing and they said you can run 10-12in travel coilovers. Not sure if that’s true and if it would even add travel, but interesting to note. I’d like to see it done.

    You can run 10-12" coilovers if you remove the stock coil buckets. Upper uniball cup / spindle is probaby what limits suspension though.

    Got my depo +2 kit yesterday
    Got +2 shafts from trail gear super cheap (104.00)
    Reinforcing LCA with marlin crawler gusset
    Reinforcing shock tower with solo gussets
    Reinforcing diff arms with total chaos gussets
    Tubing the firewall
    37's on Dirt Life trophy truck beadlocks waiting

    Next step tundra 9.5 trussed rear end with 4.88 and ARB to match the front.

    How needed are the gussets on the UCA and LCA?

    Those +2 axle shaft you got from them won't work with stock CV inner or outer . You need the long field ones . You might want to read the part that says NOTEScreenshot_20241201-155736.png

    Thank you for the save. Returning the shafts and ordering full sets. Even better I'm only going to carry a spare shaft instead of an entire CV axle.

    No problem! I dont want to be the bearer of bad news but carrying just the shaft might not do you any good in the even you bust a cv on the trail.

    Why not, from what I can tell they rebuild like a normal CV?

    Yes but are you talking about doing it on the trail or at home? Assuming it was the shaft that broke not the inner/outer

    I carry a spare inner and outer with no shaft so just in case I do break them I can pull it out and just slap the bear inner in or outer in and I can worry about rebuild later. It's just a quick and easy trail fix to get you moving

    I don't think they do. I think they're your standard +2 but in a 35 spline instead of 30 spline . But you would still have to order that company's inner and outers to work . And from looking at the pricing? I don't think it's worth it

    From reading the description those upgraded shafts will only work with, their inner and outer but it wouldn't hurt to shoot them an email and see what they say

    I was going to buy the whole assemblies lol. That being said i would have some for sale here if i did. It just depends on if they have more angle then OEM. I just emailed them.
