We just put the Fabtech Long Travel kit on my friends F-150 check the pic out attached. It doesn't stroke much with the stock bumps and shocks, but I think if the buckets were cut out and some little fab work with the coilovers it should work pretty well.

Going big and Filming it all..

naw, but seriously that long travel kit looks pretty nice. Maybe have a shop fab up a engine cage and put some sway aways on. Camburg did that with my suburban and it worked out great. Here is a pic

Hey blind655,

You have a pretty cool kit. That kit was copied off my truck. Im not bagging on it but you should get the shocks valved, I ran Kings and he valved them for me. But I also ran sway away bumps. Valving themt would probably help from bending the shaft like you did a little while ago. Anyways Jason did a good job and that hoop.
