Does anyone know of a good source for axle limit straps?
I'm still getting too much drop on the rear, and it's time to get a handle on it before I break another spring....
We worked on a new line at Disney this weekned. I did not know those little springs could streatch that far.. :)

Thanks..
I just checked, they carry Rancho straps. However, I could not find anything on Rancho's web page... $60 for a "Kit". I wonder if that's for just one strap? $60 for a pair would not be too bad, but if it's $60 each.... I don't think so....

www.avalancheengr.com has em for cheap. YOu can find a couple other places here www.swayaway.com and go to dealer links and look around. If I remember right avalanche has em the cheapest. THe rancho kit comes with some bolts and a couple .50 cent tabs to mount the straps to. IMHO it's much cheaper just to buy the straps rather than the kit, but to each is own.

I got mine at a local wire and rope retailer. They are 2" wide yellow straps, just like a tree saver. They are rated at 28,000 lbs, were $10 a piece (different lengths, different prices, mine are 21 1/2"), and they hold up my Rockwells.

The 'deal' was he only has 19" in stock. Since I've got to build all the bracketry I've got some flexibility. The 19's should work great in the rear, not at all on the fronts. The rear was what I was after, anyway... Should have them at the house by Friday. ;)
