As long as you're paying all your other bills it's an addiction that doesn't hurt anyone. And if you really want to beat on it you gotta pay to play.

Looks good!

I would humbly recommend that before you do any heavy off-roading, have a set of gussets welded to your knuckles - they are only $100 and probably another $100 to have 'em welded on. That's one weak link the Raptor guys discover once running upgraded shocks / ucas / lcas.

Do you know anybody that sells the gussets for the knuckles? I have heard that as well and would consider it since it's a cheap but smart upgrade

I love it! That price point is amazing as well. I think that kit is 5.5" wider per side as well. I am trying to talk my little sister into doing the same thing to her 2010 Fx2.

They have a full grim steering upgrade but I probably won't pull the trigger on that till my rear end is done to be honest. Hopefully the ol' lady will let me spend some more money on her this summer

Right now this kit is pulling 15 inches strapped but if I ran a one piece clip I could get up to 16.5 inches of travel
