Also you should jump over at Dodge Trucks Xtreme (DTX). Sign up and get great info w/ Carli's gang & Don Thuren (Thuren Fabrication). We all hang out over there for suspension stuff.

Email OUO or Call them There contact info is on the web site.I am sure they can make a long travel kit that is shorter and hits the fenders,breaks off steering gear and such but that will have to be special order.

Yeah thats they're traction block system. The rear lift block is integrated into the traction bar to eliminate wheel hop or the possibility of the block spitting out. I think they go from 4" all the way to a 10" block.

6" blocks + 10" Springs = 16" of lift!
