You probably wont find any used 4wd mid-travels out there for sale...yet. But the Mazzulla mid-travel kit being $3k before C/O's and netting 11" of travel is pretty damn easy and attainable.

Is that what you went with?

I didnt, I went with the Mazzulla Long Travel, which is 2wd only. After talking with Chris Mazzulla a fair bit, the limiting factor is first the Upper Uniball for travel and steering. I get 18" of travel but have **** steering. On the Mid-travel kits its the same you get less travel but more steering. Unless you go 4wd then it becomes the 4wd shaft angle becomes your limiting factor not the upper uniball.

11" of travel is 5" more than stock.

Long travel 18"
Mid-travel 2wd 14"
Mid-travel 4wd 11"

Sent ya one on FB.
 
Back on the road.
Had her on the rack for about a month.

-Replaced the steering rack, I blew it up tossing it into some two track berms in west texas.
-Piecemeal-ed a washer fluid reservoir and got it mounted up (stock is too big and in a bad location)
-Cut and fabbed front bumper, and frame horn trim, and lower arm mount bracing.
-Redid my bedside skin mounts.
-actually wired up license plate light, and backup sensors
-Paint

Drove it to dinner last night with another couple. Guys in front, ladies in the back. The front is dialed, and by buddy couldnt stop talking about how you didnt feel hardly anything on the road. Or parking lot speedbumps at 40mph. The back needs less dampening, and less rebound. Its still a tad tight. But it may be the best I'm ever going to get it on leaf springs and shackles.

Valeted it too, and they parked it up front with the Benz's, and when we called for it, the valet drove it like he stole it up to the front door. I was grinning ear to ear. BEAST!
