Default Looking for Long Travel Kit

I need a long travel suspension for my '01 2wd F150 that is decent but won't break the bank. When I say long travel I mean shocks and everything. Deavers too. I have a budget of $7,000 but I would rather it stay around $6,000.

Another question: If I put the deavers on the back with say fox shocks, do I need a bedcage?

your looking at 6-7K in front suspension alone, not including wheels, tires, rear leafs, bedcage, gearing. here are some companies to check out.
camburg, dixon bros, richer racing, bms, and gmr. look into those companies and they can get you prices. I have mid travel camburg kit on my truck and just the parts: wheels, tires, kit, leaf springs, 4.10 gears cost me 5K and I did all the install myself. the camburg long travel is $5500 and install is 2K I already asked about that and thats not including the rear or up graded shocks

You can save a lot of money buying used kits, the only problem is you dont know hard the previous owner beat on them and if anything is bent, sometimes you cant see if its bent until you have it installed or on an alignment rack. race dezert is a good place to find used kits though
