If it's true, should fix our weak link with the T-bar crank lifts!
Long Travel IFS is now possible.

I've seen that somewhere else, but can't find my bookmark now. Yea, all ya need is a more narrow front shaft and lenthen the front a arms. Usually that kinda stuff is very expensive, but I would think weel work a look into. Mmmmm, you just re-lit my thought I had about IFS. Maybe instead of going for the usual SFA set up, I can rig up a custom IFS long travel. Now that would be kewl. And swap the front diff for something stronger.

Paul, you dont run dunes, so why would you want long travel IFS?
also, if you want a strong front end, just swap ours for the full ton one. its so tuff, you could put a locker in it!!!

Yea, maybe the 9.25. And longer travel means more flex. More flex, more better.

I saw it at another forum so it's just cheezy copy and paste!

P.S. So who's going to work on Long Travel IFS now?

I'm sure you could buy a IFS lift for the cost of those, I had the fornt CVs on my atv rebuilt to be stronger ( I broke 4CVs and an axle shaft in 3months) It cost me 350 per CV and another 300 to beef up each of the axle shafts. And thats not including shiping.
