    I'm thinking the LSK kit's +9" track width is a typo on their site. Can anyone confirm their kit really adds 4.5" per side?

    The Total Chaos stuff is sweet! Not running LT but have been running their products for over 6 years on 3 different rides (2 FJ, 1 Tundy). Absolutely zero complaints about them. And their tundra.... :spending:

    LT is easy to figure out. The longer the arms, the more the travel. Adding 2.5" per side will give you 16" travel with 35" tires. I believe Mazzula and LSK are wrong on their travel numbers, but who am I to argue with them?

    Larger tires, like 37s, will reduce up travel unless you move the inner fenderwell.

    If you extend the arms more, you can get more travel and still keep healthy CV angles, but then your truck is a lot wider. The LSK race kit has an advantage because they run a lower shock leverage ratio. Instead of 8" shocks they can fit 10" shocks by redoing the upper mounts and spindle. The longer shocks and lower leverage means the shock will run cooler. I believe the LSK race kit also has longer arms and is capable of more travel, but they are not advertising that.

    Ground clearance matters. The Total Chaos tubular kit has the most ground clearance. More than an inch more clearance than some other kits.

    Not arguing anything - Just saying I think the Procomp is :puke:

    it shouldn't even be listed in the group. Never said it looks like Chit and performs like chit and is chit. It might be great what do I know but I would rather drive a prius than install Procomp.

    I designed my kit around 37s and 4wd.

    3.5" Wider per side, boxed lower with good ground clearance, 16" of travel with a 37" tire and 4wd. Running a positive wheel offset will help keep the track width more reasonable as well. I will also be releasing a 3.0 coilover option here very soon.

    MCM Fab has a kit:

    Kibbetech has a kit available, but no link on their website.

    Rogue Racing should have a kit in the near future as it is currently being tested.

    TC long travel. Deaver 420 SU leaf packs.
    First thing I notice with the SMS kit is the the uniball in the UCA seems to be pushed really far forward. I'm not sure what that means other than it might be hard to get much caster?

    Look again. I'm not saying it's not normal but look at the relationship between the uniball and the rear mount. Here's what Camburgs geometry looks like. They move the uniball back farther than anyone else that I know of. I'm not saying that's ideal either.

    @831Tun that is Camburg's Mid Travel setup. On their long travel setup, Camburg moves the lower ball joint forward for more tire clearance and caster. Solo may also do that.
    upload_2018-3-21_15-57-44.jpgRegardless, I think there is enough caster in the kit as far as I can tell from interwebs photos.

    Ahh, I see what you're saying. (Yes I know it's an image of the MT UCA, can't find one for the LT) Moving the Lower uniball forward and the upper one moves the entire wheel forward and things (like the uca photo) would look quite different than what I'd expect.
    Yeah, I don't have any experience with LT. Just having issues with alignment #s on my MT with Icon arms.

    Kibbetech is claiming 17" of travel with 4wd and 37's. Cost unknown, probably significant. I think it looks like the LSK kit. Photos are on his Instagram account.

    Upper arm mounts are moved down and apart, allowing the coilover and bypass to both fit inside the UCA. Custom upper shock mounts and a fabricated spindle.
