Long Travel

[2012SCSVT]

@2012SCSVT I've seen your build on here and BLGT, definitely an inspiration. Ordered a set of deavers today and hope to get a bedcage soon. Unfortunately I don't have the guts to fab my first one up. Any recommendations on the big name bedcages? Also, whose shackles are you running?

Cool, yeah I generally post most details good and bad, I'm using a rpg bypass rack, just slightly modified and I have custom lower shock mounts on the axle to run a 18" shock. Rps shakels too, in that picture I had bms

I posted the .dxf for the lower mounts in a another not tread sure if this link will work:

he kit? Do you wish you went with a wider kit, or more so why did you go with the stock width? Are you on a deaver rear end? What would you change if

I love that you incorporated 18" shocks instead of 16", that way, if one day you are able to, you could use that bypass on a 4-link. Also, I really like that bump mount setup you have, did you fab that yourself? I am really wanting to go HM up front, and then a custom 3-Link in the rear. I will be riding in a bunch of different setups this summer though to see which one I find most adequate!!!

That's such a sweet kit! How wide are you and is that a 10" stroke? I'm putting my list together for the coming years and its between a blitz mid travel and this HM kit. I live in Michigan, and am going to be riding in all sorts of different trucks to see what I think will be adequate. Really leaning towards the HM kit, and installing it myself. My next question, what is your rear end set up?

Sorry I realized this is a gen 1 forum and my truck is a gen 2. But the kit is the same either way. Yes 10" stroke shock, that is a big deal. Rear end is a deaver spring over with a 18" 3.5 king. I will be going spring under soon to get more uptravel at ride height.
