    I'm going for first place in the Idiot of the Day Award. Suppose I have a BDS 7", will Long Travel parts for a wider stance work with the BDS parts? 2.5 Gen

    You'd use the BDS knuckles and use the BDS crossmembers to install the LCAs to - that's about it. You'd have to replace the coilovers, get LT CV axles, UCA, and longer tie rods.

    Too many mods to come

    Be curious on length coilovers maybe 10" spring rather than the typical 8"

    It's been done but it's a REALLY bad idea IMO.
