    It all started when I hit a deer going home one night.
    After searching on line for a cool and useful bumper I found the arb.
    Not to long after that I need shocks so i decided to lift it.
    Now I want to go further, I want to make my taco into a offroad, trail climbing camping machine!

    I'm just not sure where to start.
    Should I upgrade to a differant suspension first?
    If so what's the dif from long travel and mid travel?
    And what shocks should get?
    Or is my suspension fine for trail climbing?

    Good looking truck bud. Do you have a spacer up front or their shocks and coils? If you plan on actually off-roading it I'd suggest getting the OME kit or a set of good coilovers. I'm running a set of Icons with 700# coils for my bumper! skids and winch. Mid travel can be achieved with a good set of coilovers like Icon, Fox, Saw, or Kings. And Long travel uses new LCAs that widen the track of your truck from +2" to +6". Long travel setup is quit expensive. What setup do you have in the rear?
