no need to strap this for limiting droop (less stress on shocks = longevity)? What about a bump for full compression? not needed?
Bump??? We haven't played with one up front yet and now that we have some good time on these, I don't think it will ever be needed. But that doesn't mean a bump might not find it's way on one day

With regards to straps, no need. We haven't seen a stock shock pull apart yet so I cant imagine two 3.0"s will.

Do you get any additional wheel travel out of the front by having uniballs at the top and the bottom of the knuckle vs the factory ball joints?
As Tizzle said they cycle about 12.5" The arms would allow for more travel, but the travel is limited by the shock which is designed not to go past what the CV's can handle. The cool thing about having uppers, lowers and tie-rods the drive on the street totally changes. Now that all the rubber bushings are gone, the steering feedback through the wheel is so much better.
Also having the dual shocks lets us really focus on low speed control of the shock. This will allow the truck to drive ultra smooth on freeways, chattery type roads and small washboard stuff.
