Default Long Travel Kit

I want to purchase a long travel kit that requires no fabrication, but I want to use dual shocks. Which kit do you recommend that requires no modification to the frame.

RPG is the only vendor I know of that has a bolt in LT kit - pulls 16.5" and is a little over 6k WITHOUT coilovers or bypass shocks.

Exactly what WarSurfer mentioned, RPG has a "Bolt Kit" available.

Or you can go with Brenthel/Baja Kits Long Travel Race Kit for $1000 less. This involves some fab and welding though.

You will need to purchase Coilovers and Shocks separately for both kits.

SVC MT kit is bolt on. The LT kit requires a little more work because the upper coil/bypass mount is a hoop. I honestly don't know if the hoop is bolt on or weld on, the kit isn't ready for the masses yet - according to their site.

I have the Baja Kits 3.0 Race kit on my 2014 F-150. There is welding and fab work needed. they have what they call "chase kits" that are bolt on but they do not accept a coilover and bypass. Good luck with the build!!
