Zhanx, the Dixon kit and others are coming close to those travel numbers with 4x4 (High angle CV's = $$$$$)
it will only get better as more kits come out.
Remember its easy to increase the travel numbers at the wheel when you go wider.....


i know but i dont have that kind of money... if the army paid better maybe..

it is all about reasearch, so you know 100% for sure what you need, and shopping around the forums for used stuff and all. Ive gotten SWEET deals on the parts that im going to be using.
 






the market will be flooded with similar kits from mild to wild over th enext couple of years if you are serious about staying with IFS/A arms.....

Thats what I'm waitin for :D Once I get my 98 in 4wd long travel prerunner form, then Sport Trac is gettin an SAS (after its paid off).
 


















it was funny cause u can feel a difference just going around the corner. i can feel the extra travel/articulation that they give. might go run a couple little dirt roads to see how they do.
