    On the DOT issue...steering components do not require approval like brake lines. DOT makes a statement about end play and slop. while not DOT approved, they aren’t because they don’t have a testing program that certifies individual components. If they weren’t legal, I doubt the 20 or 30 major...

    5" Lift Springs

    You can run 35’s on a 3” lift on a D2 as long as you use a skinny tire and live with 3 inches of up travel. Keeps the truck low so you actually don’t have to worry about rolling it on a off ramp going faster than 10mph. There’s a moron out here running a 14.5 wide on his, 4” terracrap lift with...

    What's wrong with my RTE lift?

    Do you even understand the diffrence between progressive and linear springs. No spring can be a true linear spring because the force applied is not a constant... I dont think anyone is making longer radius or trailing arms, just castor correct fronts and some stupid expensive arms that let you...
