Long-Travel Suspension Conversions in Plano, TX
Long-Travel Suspension Conversions by Texas Motorworx serving Plano, TX and the broader DFW metro. Long-travel suspension is the conversion that transforms a fast factory truck into a race-grade desert truck. Texas Motorworx specializes in long-travel programs for Ford Raptor (Gen 2 and Gen 3), Bronco Raptor, Ram TRX, and Toyota Tundra/Tacoma platforms. A long-travel build replaces the stamped factory upper and lower control arms with billet/tubular pieces that move the upper ball joint outboard, then mounts new King 3.0 race-series coilovers in a relocated upper bracket. The result: 14"–16" of front travel (up from 10"–13" factory) and a chassis that finally lets the wheels work over rough terrain. Most long-travel builds run $30K–$80K and complete in 8 to 14 weeks.
Plano, TX Customer Notes
Plano is one of our strongest customer cities outside Dallas proper — about 25 minutes north of the TMX shop via Dallas North Tollway or US-75. Plano's executive demographic and the Legacy West / Shops at Legacy corridor have produced a steady flow of Ford Raptor, Bronco Raptor, and Ram TRX customers since 2019.
Plano-based customers typically drop trucks at our Farmers Branch facility and Uber home, then come back for milestone walkthroughs during the build. We can also coordinate enclosed pickup and drop-off for Plano customers who don't want to make the drive.
We see a lot of 21+ Ford Bronco builds out of Plano specifically — the Sasquatch package is a popular factory option in the Collin County market, and customers tend to outgrow the factory FOX shocks within the first 12–18 months of ownership and bring the truck in for an ICON Stage 4 or Stage 7 program.
Plano customers occasionally request extended warranty coverage on aftermarket installations, which we coordinate through Easycare and similar third-party providers on bumper-to-bumper terms.

From Concept to Keys
Long-travel readiness audit
Not every truck is a candidate. We start by inspecting the chassis, drivetrain, and intended use to confirm long-travel is the right path.
Kit selection & quote
SVC GenX, Camburg KINETIK, Total Chaos — the right kit is platform-specific. Fixed quote and timeline.
Teardown & install
Factory uppers, lowers, and shocks come off. New billet/tubular arms, new shocks, new geometry — installed in our 12,000 sqft Farmers Branch facility.
Rear-axle calibration
Front travel only solves half the problem. Custom Deaver leaf packs and matched rear bypass shocks let the rear axle keep up with the new front capability.
Race-program calibration & delivery
Final shock tuning calibrated against feedback from our SPEC TT/6100 race truck running the Best In the Desert series.
