    Sorry if I came off that way man, stacking the 2 differnt types of lifts doesn’t sound like a good idea

    When I first bought my truck I really had no clue when it comes to suspension. The lift did a great job for what it’s is, however now that I off-road quite frequently on harder trails I need something with more performance oriented.

    Props to you man, I had a 6 inch fabtech on my first gen before I knew anything about real suspension. I never pulled my lift off although eventually I sourced out a first gen cross member. Glad to see you do it right.

    Still in fabrication so who knows shooting for my truck to be ready for dumont or at least testing by then. But they just made some big design changes that is going to be crazy. Hope to get some pics posted soon just been busy at work and other things. It’s going to be killer they are doing afew things that no other company has done before.

    I ran into a guy with the camburg 3.5 kit with a 6 inch DB lift on the TW facebook group. Guy couldnt figure out why he was always blowing a cv on the trail. I think I was the first to tell him that his set up was a little counter productive.

    It's been done, it drives down the road... regardless of the outcome.

    One thing that is not often discussed. Drop brackets are like putting a lever arm on your suspension joints/ frame. LT is like putting a lever arm on your suspension joints/ frame. Doing both is like putting a lever on a lever....

    Reason why I want to put LT is for more front end flex. I did not know much about suspension when I initially put the DB 6” on her. I do a fare amount of aggressive over-landing now and don’t feel like rolling off a shelf road in Death Valley. Need some help from others that have completed the task.
    Truck has 6” DB, icon uca’s, icon custom shocks frt/rear, Allpro-expedition leaf springs(add 2 more leafs, 35’s, cut fenders, 488’s, Arb frt/rear.
