    Hey Taczilla, just to let you know the Cali Raised are awesome quality! They have light and bracket kits that you can order directly from the site as well.http://caliraisedled.bigcartel.com/ (I would just order as a set with the brackets.)

    Rago fab include paper instructions step by step for installation, not to mention the Cali raised video instructions on you tube is a must watch before installing.

    NO you'll just have to angle it up a little bit more. I have the skewp and at the right angle the bar works perfect

    An early Birthday Present should be on its way shortly.......... Stay tuned for DIY rebuild/facelift for both these and my Walker Evans Rear Shocks!


    Will be taking suggestions to possible color combinations (IE front coils)! Has anyone done green before?

    Ive got radflos up front. If you can find a drill powered wire wheel it cleans em up well. The aluminum wears easily so don't run it for too long in one spot.

    Thanks! Yeah I read online some WF-40 and steel wool would polish them right uo! Will look into protection coating and stripping/re painting the springs! I also called to see if these can't be converted to " extended travel" but it was no dice. ....

    Try to find some brass wool and use that instead of the steel wool. The steel wool can leave bits of metal in any little groove and rust, thus making you have to clean them again to remove any rusted particulates.

    Clear coating will prevent the aluminum from oxidizing and keeping them looking new for much longer.

    Used some of the black self adhesive door edge guard from Autozone on my buddy's light bar. Got rid of any whistle it had and overall quieted the wind noise from it.

    Finished up the OBA set up today. Mounted an ARB twin compressor in the driver side bedside and paired that with a 2 gallon air tank mounted under the bed. Put the air connection inside the bed cubby along with the switch and pressure gauge. Will get a picture of the tank in a few.
