An auto locker will be about the same amount of work but will work far better, hands down the best mod I did to my samurai after a set of MT's. 
Re: Goofy Leaf
Yeah just thought it looked like an interesting concept. But I suppose you are right the only point to massive down travel is to stop wheels lifting and keep traction. Its got a trusty "weldwell" locker in the back so should be fine lol

Re: Goofy Leaf
Will give you as much down travel as the shocks will allow
But the compromise is loss of stability on side slopes, this allows the suspension to "unload" not as bad as scissor shackles but still will make the truck "floppy"

Re: Goofy Leaf
what about if you added a swaybar?
just thinking there has to be a way to counter the unload effect....
since the topic is "Goofy Leaf" not how best to modify your ....whatever
