    Have you quoted prices yet for install? I seem to get estimates of about $700 for gears, install kit, and labor.

    Have you tried calling Trail Gear or someone who deals with older Toyota Pickup Solid axle setups, they might have an alternative?

    Delrin is too hard, it will either crack or bend shock mounts.

    I replaced mine with poly bushings. Seems to be holding up well so far. Probably should have cut two of them down so there is a lip on both sides, but I'm a hillbilly.

    It was fucking epic. So many cool trucks. I managed to shear the studs on my spacer in the back and send one if my tires flying through the dunes. Jordan's front kit handled business and was boss.

    I forgot when we did your shocks, But you may have the metal check valves in the shocks. If so, you can get the special plastic ones from King to bring the noise down. And that with getting the King Poly Bushings that go over hiems should help. I know I have the King metal check valves and my truck clicks too. lol
