Brenthel long travel install

[factive]

It has 16" fox shocks, 4.5" deavers, our shackle kit, 2.5 fox or king bumpstops with our one of a kind 3rd member between the frame giving north south and east west protection. It also has two tire spare tire mounts, tool box and a race jack like mentioned earlier. The shocks mount through the bed to the cage. Give me a call on Tues I can answer all your questions.

How much does your bedcage weigh. 900 pounds?

Hear it's sprung over, can it be fabbed to run a sprung under setup?

At this point we don't have a way to fab it to run sprung under set up. Is there a particular reason that you dislike the spring over axle style just out of curiosity? Or have a certain worry? Maybe I can clear something up for you.

Haha not quite 900lbs. But it all depends in what you want in it. the Cage does weigh about 300lbs with shocks.

The biggest benefit of SO is that you have more ground clearance. Another thing is that our kit is all bolt on. The main worry for SO is axle wrap, we actually remove the factory block on our kit so this is not an issue. Most reasons for SU is for more travel and spring available. We are getting 17'' of travel out of our kit so we feel pretty good about the travel issue.
Im sure many will argue in which one is better being its a common debate. For us we feel it is the best option to use being we love our ground clearance and bolt on is easy. If you come to Raptoberfest you are more than welcome to take a look and ride in our raptor!

Can you get some pictures together of your spring pack pulling 17" of travel in a sprung over configuration? I am very curious to see this as sprung under configurations typically get 17.5" of travel metal to metal.

Jason we measure from top of the bump pad to the bottom of the bumpstop minus the bumpstop pad. How do you measure? FYI it is actually 17" 3/8 without applied pressure.
