You need to be clear when you talk about this, because well... I hate to say it, it's a running joke on 4wheeling forums and it's a quick way to get ribbed for being a noob.

Hope you can work something up though!
Thanks, but you gotta admit there is a big difference between a guy sayin he has 33 inches (a common tire size) of wheel travel with a BOLT ON kit and a guy sayin he wants to custom make a front end with 25 inches of travel...

Are you guys sure the max angle on the stock cv joints is 23* tho?

i say if you want to custom build something go for it man its a lot more work then you think. there is a guy on nor cal pre-runner.net that built his own his name is naavy or somehting like that. if you just want huge travel go to RRP fab.com and he makes a kit for 3k that cycles 20" in fornt. or get some old upper and lower A-arms and measure all the angles and stuff and make them how ever you want. but if you want a lot of travel then you might want to go with a 2wd kit cuz your not going to get it out of a 4wd kit
