im running the super flex arms with 4-5 inch flexy coils and efs extreme shocks from 80 series with shock towers extended 2 inches in front. front cross member has to be notch out cause the front drive shaft hits.

Talk to Shane at Suspension Stuff, Have you undone or removed your current shocks and flexed each end until your coil just becomes loose and then measured the travel?

i have not notched out cross member yet. hope to do it this weekend. im very happy with the travel iv got. speak to superior or shane at suspension stuff they are both very helpfull. if you want to see pic do a search for a topic called "super flex". iv got no lockers and get just as far and further than mates of mine that have lockers. these shocks have been really good with no problems and i give them a hard time.

do your shocks run out of travel be for the drive sharft hits? and is the the front hitting or just the rear crossmember?

no my shocks dont run out of travel be for front drive shaft hit gearbox crossmember. the rear tail shaft needs to be turn around so the skinny end is at the front so it does not hit the tube part of the chassis.
