    LOL. I can't believe I'm admitting to this on a public forum, but I'll give it up to Hass. He hooked it up when I got my 50T pack. Not only did I get the "racer" discount, he actually had the springs in the brown truck and I had a tracking number before he even had my money.

    But that's the only Engage thing on my truck. Actually the rear of my truck is kind of a whore....Engage 50T springs, TC shackles and pivots, Giant bedcage, modified TC lower shock mounts, TG frame box and crossmember kit, Relentless truss, King shocks, Fox bumps, and jberry fabrication and shock valving.

    Bump to strap is 16.5", and that's due to the bed cage design.
    If I had 18" stroke shocks, or if the bed cage had the shocks angled farther forward, I would have no problem hitting 18" provided I got my driveshaft shortened.
    Given that I'm only pulling a hair over 12" up front, it's kinda pointless.

    youre rear starts to out-preform the front, then you have to redo it all over again to get it right.

    Its better that your rear can out-perform the front in most cases though.

    1) More money
    2) More time
    3) More fab work

    You don't have to redo anything. If the rear outperforms the front...then it just has unused performance. It's like my penis and an asian woman. No matter how you look at it, there's unused penis.

    Dear lord...he learned. :goingcrazy:

    i worded my answer wrong haha. i meant as the rear out-preforms the front, you can(if you choose) to upgrade the front like rj did... pulling 16 front and rear.

    No I get what your saying.
    As a general rule of thumb to keep the ass from bucking is you want the rear to outperform the front by 20%. All things being equal (proper valving, clean travel, blah blah blah), if front and rear travel #'s match and you try drive the front to its limits, you're kidneys are going to bleed. I'd much rather have unused travel/performance from the rear of the truck than the other way around.

    This is incorrect. My kidneys are intact.. :D

    My truck doesnt have limits.
    Thus the limit strap breaking issue.
