would a 4" suspension possible?
« on: May 16, 2012, 12:04:46 PM »
i was looking at sum drop brackets for the front diff and then asked myself, i have 2" now and with an extra 2" would be nice, but i think my problem would be the control arm would not be long enough? and the tie rod end might be too much of in an angle?

Can't wait for altered ego to finish that lift.. curious to see how they overcome the GV suspension limitations.

i hate to be a negative nancy, but i have my doubts they'll ever finish that kit - are they even working on it?!  :-\

I would love for them turn around and make me eat my words, but i've been checking that site for a long time and haven't seen anything that shows any signs of life regarding the big lift kit.

There's a user here - Kreator I think - who runs a fabrication business.  He currently has longer arms for the first gen and I believe is planning to make for the second gen - why not let him know you're interested?

i would definitely buy them!

I feel kind of trapped, with a spacer lift and body lift, there isn't much else i can do to net more lift other then longer control arms. And i needs me more lift!  ;D
