Your right it does offer 11 inches of travel but its not usable travel. You get a JD fab kit you will have the wider front end, you will have a better coilover on it with a king or even a fox. I would personally go SAW. The 11 inches of travel your getting now is a completely different type of travel you will be getting with a complete front end you have a stronger upper and lower a arms, a shock tower, limit straps which if you put on your truck now would lower the travel to 9 inches. I have the procomp coilover on my truck and it handles good for a lift kit but i know its only a lift kit. JD fab does some amazing work and is totally worth the price. As for stretch104 dont take this the wrong way but you dont put fender flares on a lifted truck. It just looks stupid. There is no point. I understand you may get chips in your paint but you know thats going to happen when you lift the vehicle. If you want a wider stance than spend the bucks to put a kit on it and you will be a lot happier.

 

I dissagree I have the stronger UCA and looking for stronger lower, also JD uses the stock spindle and shock tower, all its got over me is the LCA which is soon to be fixed, if I can find a shop and I have 11.5 of useable just look at my sig. I had that tire well over 11 inches off even befor anyother tire lifted. I wanted SAW but 6 week build time and almost all good aftermarket replacement coilover have in internal top out dampner(sp?) not as good as a limit strap but really stops the clunking at full extension for me. I dont want to start a big deal over this I just think mine works great for what I have in it. were talking 4 or 5k less for 2.5 inch of wheel travel. No doubt I would give my left nut for that kit but I am still young and will need that one later Also I dont think procomp shocks have a top out device anyone know for sure? Also no matter how set up the front is your truck is only as good as the rear to keep up with the front.

 

I think to each his own, but I have personaly seen the JD FAB set-up and I have seen trucks with the TOTAL CHAOS uniball UCA and King coilovers and you are truely comparing apples to oranges. The JD fab system is not even in the same ballpark on any comparison. When you are talking measurements for wheel travel there are some good post on the Race Desert forums and Dezert Rangers forums about the correct way to measure usable wheel travel and jacking the truck up on one side to see how many inches before the tire comes off the ground isn't one of them. As for a top out device you speak of there is no replacement for a proper strapped and bumped stopped suspension (I know from personal experience because I couldn't wait for my limit straps on my Long travel ranger and ended up popping an axle out of the slip spline because of to much droop travel) although you can set-up a bypass shock to us one of the bypasses for a built in bump but not for limiting droop. Sorry for the novel.
