i was just wondering how your project was going.
no tips or pics, just a lot of interest in your project.
oh and snide remarks,might be cool tomorrow you should probably go with the clogs,not the sandals!

I must not have nearly as much lift as I thought I did. I had my stabilizer mounted like that and it was hitting the oil pan so I had to take it off. That's a bummer, that mounting position is perfect. I'll have to figure something else out when I do mine. And for $200 it will be soon :D Maybe I'll mount the ram lower on the front of the diff.

Chris, what's the price of that tie rod mount? I like :D

I have some pictures of my setup, pretty much follwed Chris' setup. With the 2" drivetrain lift and axle forward 2.75", I don't have any trouble with the hoses hitting the oil pan:

This will help if you have oil pan clearance issues with a V6.

i f you weld it to the tie rod you can't get aligned perfect because you will always have to rotate the tie rod for the ram to line up.:zzz: :zzz: :zzz:

Some times minor changes in a truck require moving the brackett left or right on the rod so we prefer having this adjustable. We are changing the design and will be using counter sunk allen head bolts in the future.


I don't have prices for the seprate parts like ram and bracket but we can sell them. If your serious give a call at the shop next week and I can get the prices.

I read that post too, and figured the guy had no clue what he was saying... Just stick t he fawker up there, tack it into place, flop the wheels side to side, check for binds, and then BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZz, there, no frigin bolts.. Did it to dsi's rig, and mine is next week once i get my hydro parts, then NO MORE DAMN DRAG LINK!!!!!!!! Boy, that sure felt good....... Ok, back to pissing the neighbors off running around with open headers :D :D
