Yeah the fabtech long travel is only what like 4 inches without the spindles?

 

Yeah, its only worth 4.5, but it leaves with 12" of wheel travel. Not much, but way better than stock. Add the spindles in there and all they are good for is that extra 3".

 

Yea, but I'd sacrifice all my lift to be able to run long travel with a set of 35s and fiberglass on it. So much more function for a 2wd than just a standard lift.

 

Yeah but the only downside to getting a long travel is that there would be nowhere near where I live to put it to real use. There is a lot of dirt roads and what not, but not anything where you can safely get at a higher speed and just run the crap out of it.

 

Yea same here, Id have to drive a distance to get somewhere to use it safely, but dang the ride would be amazing

Here ya go. I would so go for it if the funds would allow and if I could find the dual shock mount for it.

 

Long travel kits ride amazing! Way better than stock. Even mine (which is more mid travel) takes big bumps like there not there. Its crazy.

 

That is the same seller I bought my kit from. Hes a good guy, and he has the dual shock hoops. Its actually an engine cage that goes up and over the top of the intake and has a plate that says fabtech on it up top.They will hook you up with one of those for $600, but you still got to buy the shocks.

 

I want one of those so bad! too bad its still about 1800 time you include kit, dual shock hoops, and shocks

 

You are very right, and that only gets you the 4.5" kit. Then you still need to get the fabtech lift spindles to get that 7.5-8. Doestch/springtech lift spindles dont have the same bore as the fabtech spindles do, and so they will not mount to the ball joints. I know this, as I have tried. I bought my fabtech lift spindles USED for $400. People like to keep them apparently.

 

Dang thats even worse cause I would just use my springtech spindles with it, I'm guessing its not possible to adapt the springtech spindles?

 

Uhm, well you could get a machine shop to bore them out, but I have no idea how much you would spend on that? FWIW I sold my doestch spindles, and a set of lift coils for $450 which paid for my fabtech spindles.

 

Oh okay yea I that makes more since, now I just need to find a set of fabtech spindles and then go from there ha

 

Just save up for a few years for a camburg! haha

 

Yeah, a camburg would be BAD A! Only thing is that you pay like $3500 for the base kit, and it requires a LOT of fabrication to be installed. Not to mention the shocks are nearly $1200-1400 a set, and the bumpstops which are required are nearly $300 a piece. They do have a mid travel kit for 10" for $1500, and it comes with Uni-ball UCA joints.
