SWEEEEEET!!

OK, so it's looking like the the cognito 4", the superlift 6", or still the near stock height option with the cognito upper arms. I want a little lift, but for me it's all about travel, especially in the front. I know how to make rear axles travel: Relocated shock bracketry with LT shocks, control army with something like Rubicon express joints, lengthened brake line and wiring, and maybe a driveshaft mod.

Over the years, I have learned for a standard track truck a ratio of about 70% travel in the rear and 30% in the front, keeps the rollovers to a minimum.
Shocks (and suspensions seem to work best with 3"-4" of stuff, and the rest of the travel all in drop out.

But with all the track of this thing, you could afford to stretch the front some without worrying about terra based aerobatics.
