    I gained 2" of droop/travel with LR UCAs and extended travel Fox 2.5s up front. Didn't measure the gains in the rear with the Dakar pack with 3rd leaf removed but it's close 6" if not more.

    Those are still good and fine even with tyne stock UCA I think. that's the same shock on the trd pro's. are you sure 22 extended shock length is as much as can be done before limiting straps are needed?

    Depends what UCA you run, but regardless if you are running extended travel shocks, coilovers, whatever, in the front you are going to want limiting straps. You don't want to damage your balljoint or uniball cage, or misalignment spacers (for uniball equipped trucks).

    I'd rather max out suspension travel before shock travel, but if you want to be able to max it out safely without causing any damage, limiting straps should be installed in place as a safeguard.
