Thanks!

As for the bump stops, I have a spacer lift and longer stops should prevent the strut from overloading. I had hoped that these would be longer but we shall see. Someone on here did a test with the strut out of the assembly and compressed it. The upper arm stopped and inch before the bump stop. These are a little more then an inch longer over the stock bump stops.

Looks great! Do those tires rub any? Why did you get AL's upper arms? Did your balljoints already go bad. :?:

Thanks Mutt! Not quite the trail rig yours is, but I am working on it.


I have no rubbing in the back but the front had all the common issues. Hammered the pinch weld and took out my front fenders. I also trimmed a tiny bit on the back of the front bumper. After I sprayed the wells with bedliner you wouldn't even know anything was removed.

I got Al's arm cause when I was installing the lift I tore the boot on the ball joint.
