I am waiting on delivery of a 2024 HD BASE model. Overtime I want to run 33s. I also want to at least level the Roxor. When I do so, I will be adding swapping out to Bilstein shocks. I would love to add a little more travel if possible. As far as lifting the thing goes, a few things have been recommended...
-Spring over axle - seems a simple way to go. Not sure If I need a longer shock. Not sure if this adds wheel travel (if it does then awesome).
-Reverse Shackle - should smooth out the ride as the leafs will move backwards instead of forward. Helps the wheels roll right over obstacles, instead of pushing through them. Might do this regardless!
-Simple shackle lift - cheapest way to go. I've heard that anything over 2-2.5" longer than stock begins to negatively affect stability and steering.
Again, I don't want to lift the thing sky high. Just enough to clear 33s and have some room to spare for articulation. Smoothing the ride out a bit is also a must.
After the suspension is complete I will be rat-holeing money for when DF comes out with the 2.7 tune! (preferable a stage 2)
