Previously I ran a nearly stock setup with the addition of 25mm sway-a-way torsion bars and "ultra low" profile upper arm stops. I adjusted the t-bars to give about 2" of lift. I found this to work fairly well but could never get the front to fully compress, even under full load. I figured I lost at least 2" of compression on the trail and only gained 1" of drop. However, I didn't notice the loss of front compression to increase the frequency of the rear axle having to compensate, ie. it didn't seem to lift a rear tire more than it did before. The most compression that the larger t-bars would allow for was having the lower arm inline with the center truss. A stock setup allows for the lower arm to compress past the center truss line. But the larger t-bars on-road were a much welcomed improvement and running 32x12.50 tires I was very happy with the setup. The whole cost of this was less than $150. Latter I added graphite injected poly a-arm bushings (which I still run) to replace the stock binding rubber bushing and added an idler arm gusset(which I also still run) for an additional $60.
