Hey, I wanted to know who makes long travel suspension kits. I know Camburg makes some nice kits, but there has to be more brands than just Camburg rite? Or does Camburg have that whole market area.
 
I thought that autofab did after consulting their website they only have stuff for TTB
 
hmm Dixon Bros Racing looks pretty good. There front suspension setup doesn't have as much travel as Camburg (14" vs. 19") but it looks like it is a little more affordable, although you get what you pay for. Race Dynamics's suspension kits don't look like they are pre runner kits more like regular suspension lifts with coil overs.
 
The Camburg kits are only for 4x2's.
 
and RCD isnt a long travel kit, it is just a lift kit with coilovers.
 
Check out McNiel Off-Road and Giant Motorsports. They make some cool stuff. And being in Cali im sure there are alot of fab shops by you that would build what you wanted.
 
Because of the geometry, it is impossible to get as much travel with an IFS as a solid-axle setup. To get more lift for a given amount of travel, or more travel period, from an IFS setup you HAVE TO lengthen the control arms (and halfshafts). The Dixon Bros. kit is the only one that does as far as I know. In fact they recommend fiberglass fenders to cover the tires because the front track is wider.
 
Dixon Brothers is the place to go for the newer SLA Rangers. McNeil is pretty good the the TTB Rangers.

A solid axle adds too much unsprung weight though if you're looking to go fast with it (the ride height cannot be set as low, either)
 
True, Junkie. Depends what you want to do with it. Desert running is cool with the Dixon Bros, that's what it was meant for. Rock crawling, or anything where you need a lot of flex and travel, an IFS rig is going to be on three wheels a lot.

you know, that is a fairly dumb stereotype. Travel is travel. I'm sure a toyota with a total chaos front end could wheel just as good as an SAS'd yota, although with smaller tires most likely. (long travel kits don't give much lift, that's why guys run flared fiberglass fenders and bedsides...that, and to cover a usually widened front track)
