    Lt Chevy Front End

    well i just convinced the wife to let me pick up a 88 chevy xcab 1500 p/u, this is going to be my long term project vehicle, i would like to get as much travel as possible front and rear, for now my question is on the front, am i better off buying a pre-made kit or having a custom one done? how much travel can i expect from a kit (giant etc), the ones i have seen only advertise about 15.5", i would like more if i can get it. what are the better kits available if that is the smart way to do it, i am new to this so any help is appreciated. like i said this is my long term project, i am in no hurry as i want to learn as i go, but don't want to make the expensive mistakes. thanks in advance

    Custom one off front ends with shocks, streering, hubs and brakes, done, over end of story cost about 30k. Thats right. $30,000.00 And the rear is just as bad. But it would be good class 8 race quality stuff.

    Stick to giant, cst, or any of the other prodution designs kits that are on the high end.

    FWIW: My friend runs the same kit as above, never had any trouble with it that I know of. But it only gets taken to the sand dunes.
