    Keep your current set up. Finish your motor. Then LT it if you're even gonna bother with it. That way you dont have 28347287 things going on/laying around. And no money to even get one project done.


    EDIT:

    This way, you can do a bed cage in the future aswell if it fits your style

    Go to midtravel and sell your fabtech. 11"/21" is a pretty good start, especially for $1600.

    I would say leave your current set up and get some pre-runner fenders for the front but if you want long travel then I say sell your set-up and get the mid travel thing..

    well the pass. side traction bar will hit my exhaust tips. and Im not moving them, spent too much on my exhaust to make it dumped.

    so I will put up a feeler ad and see who bites for the bars and suspension.

    get a 12inch lift if you got $3200 lol u want big u know it. But a prerunner screw is always badass. Get the mid travel if you plan on using it. If you wont use it then keep what u got (no point in buying something if what you got works fine for what you do)
