TTB Long Travel Question

[Scott B.]

I am getting ready to add F-250 shock towers to my front coil buckets in an effort to increase front wheel travel. I will also be changing the front Rancho springs for lighter ones (300 - 325 lbs.)

My question is, will raising the upper spring mount (and using a longer spring) result in greater wheel travel?

Short answer, yes.

Longer and slightly softer spring.

Balistic makes a real nice adjustable spring tower and a shock tower and both together. Not a bad price either;

I haven't pulled the trigger on them yet.

I did the 250 towers with Duff long arms and max out at about 9"-10" of travel with the Duff 2.5" springs.
