01f1502wd's build thread: project Stormtrooper

How hard would it be to up the front from 11" to 15"+ ? It seems like you could do a lot with the money saved from getting the midtravel first. $1600 vs $5000+

 

well right now I dont do 100+ off road so a mid travel would be excellent for what I do..and I do jump it every now and then.

I would replace the entire front end. they run coil overs. this set up still uses coils but theyre less stiff. I may look into converting it to coilover though...shouldnt be hard, just need to plate the lower arm then strengthen the upper and thow it in.

 

Sounds like you know what you want to do...

 

yup. and im thinkin about changing my mind on my engine too. do a L swap instead of the vortech, then it would be easier to get parts and easier to modify cuz all i would have to do is get L parts.

 

or just swap the entire L engine over and get different pullies

 

you just need to do AND finish one mod at a time you change projects too much

 

Yeah finish one mod at a time. But I may know someone interested in a vortech

 

^full kit with an innercooler. I paid 1200 for the kit and 600 for the innercooler. install it and tune it and your good. so 1800.

 

Yours is a 5.4 right?

 

yessir!
