I do not believe (at all) in any thread title that looks like "click here to know more" (so I changed this one to what the article it was linking to said).

I would be interested to see a picture of the angle inclination of the CV joints.
I wonder of this lifting will not create a premature wear out of those components?
It drops the motors so the cv axles keep similar angles to the smaller Mpp lift.
It's effectively a combined subframe and spacer lift with long travel control arms and gets rid of the knuckle clearance issue.

Doesn't even say the maximum tire size. Those dinky tires look comical with that much lift. They'd have been wiser to just charge 2k for a pair of front suspension bits that will clear a larger tire by another inch. Some lift blocks and call it a day. Realistically, to go any bigger than the current suspension allows, the body will need some work with a saw.
The limiting factor has always been the front knuckle. They have a new custom knuckle so now it's limited by the body and rubbing/trimming etc.

Yes, but what those limits are is unclear. For 16k, I'd want a body kit included.
