No real advice yet as I haven't installed my 94-01.5 long travel kit. I decided that I wanted to replace kingpins and spindles so I ordered the disc brake kit also. Those are bolt up items for the long travel kit.

30+ does not sound appealing! Definitely throw front disc brakes on it if you plan on that kind of speed. Me, I have a pretty good hilltop descent that is barely controllable with the factory rears, so upgrade time.

My build is: 96 Medalist, SPM48400, 400amp solenoid, 2 ga wires, 8hp 1600rpm GE beast motor, 48volt Husky lithium battery, CU reversing contactor, Lester Summit II on board charger, 23" tractor tires, 15:1 ratio rear end, Jakes Long Travel kit with front disc brakes (last two not arrived/installed yet).
