So been toying with the idea of making some changes when I get back from Afghanistan. Kind of want to get the fiberwerx raptor conversion. The only issue I see is that with my current lift the tires might be tucked in too much. Mine stick out maybe 2-3 inches past the stock FX4 flares now and with the conversion the flares will be 4 inches past stock. The only thing that would get me more track with is a long travel setup. Would a long travel setup like brenthels for the 4wd work with the 6 inch procomp? Or the kit that JD fab makes?

I want to keep my lift and want the fiberglass conversion kit just have to find a way to get some more track width. I already have wheel adapters on so is there any other way besides going long travel?

Thanks

 

I'm confused, you do know that a long travel kit will most likely sit you at the same height as your lift? Are you just trying to piece things together to make yourself wider? Because it won't work like that. It's gonna be all or nothing.

 

A.) take your lift off and go with "B"
B.) Go with JD fab for a long travel setup, with Brenthel setup you will retain about factory travel. Do your research on dezert rangers.
C.) Keep with what you have and install wheel spacers to increase your track width aka sweet brodozer BRAH!

Option B gets my vote and your wallet will hate you. Looking at $10k for the front end and possibly $5-10k for the rear end.

 

He already has spacers so he doesn't have much of a choice.

 

Thanks guys, pretty much already talked myself out of all that, I get crazy ideas everytime I get overseas...prolly just go with a prerunner style bumper and a new grill and put the money into the wife's FJ. My truck does everything I need it to now just want a bit of a cosmetic change. Might toy with wrapping it in matte vinyl too. That would be a decent project to tackle.
