Wondering if anybody knows for sure if a control arm and a new shock increase wheel travel in the front like the Gen 1 did?

MORE INFO NEEDED
What shock and what UCA and or LCA
My question is a general one. Does any control arm/ shock combination increase travel on the Gen 2's like most of the Gen 1's do? My truck should be here in a about 2 weeks and am wanting to get the most bang for my buck.
Yes some shocks and UCA / LCA will give you more travel
Just curious how you know this? Have you measured it? If so which combination do increase travel, so I can order them?
if you want to go full tilt
BOLT Front Suspension Kit - RPG Offroad
Stage 4 Rear Suspension Kit - RPG Offroad
don't forget this
Gen2 RST18 with Recovery Rack - RPG Offroad
if you only want a little more
Billet Upper Control Arms - RPG Offroad
with the "spherical bearing" not ball joints
Better shocks
Fox 3.0 Factory Series Coil-Over Internal Bypass Recirculating Finned Remote DSC - RPG Offroad
Fox 3.0 EXTERNAL BYPASS PIGGYBACK QAB WITH ECS2 EXTERNAL COOLING SYSTEM - RPG Offroad
RPG isn't claiming more travel with the upper control arm?
The Bolt kit is a full replacement upper control arm lower and upright.
I know there are dozens of kits that can increase wheel travel, HM, SVC, RPG, brenthal, blitzkrieg, ect.
My question is does an upper control arm and a new shock increase travel on the Gen 2 and if so which combination does?

Ok so stupid question here, but the "BOLT" kit will increase front suspension travel to 16.5" but how much does it increase width? Been thinking about going this route but need to know if I'm going to have to run glass up front. TIA
