hey ron, for the front with a long travel in the rear you can run viper shocks with venture or sx radius rods and tierods. you have to fab your own upper shock mount but its not a big deal. I don't know if you noticed my srx in the garage on the stand (half tore apart). that one has a doo sc10III in the rear with the viper/venture front end combo. I have mine set up with alot of set-in so it only sits slightly higher than stock. handles the big stuff 100% better and didn't lose too much of that srx slotcar handling.

X2 - You'll also need to space out the dog bones for the sway bar to accomodate the wider stance... or swap out the sway bar for a Viper/Venture. The SRX trailing arm is a bit shorter at the spindle than Viper/Venture so I don't run as much set-in up front... I'd like some slightly stiffer springs up front but all in all I'm happy.
While you're adding height, you're also adding width so it's nearly a wash as far as cornering.
