    Spacers, and the space from tire to fender do not equate to more travel. You have only moved the coil over down 3 inches. Putting alot of stress on alot of your suspension components.

    Geared up on 5th and Grand. They're only $50, my brother uses them all the time and sent me over there. I believe them- I do have some steering play. They quoted me $409 parts and labor for both inner tie rods lmao. I just ordered the whole set, inner outer for both sides from rock auto for $130.

    That is not now suspension travel works. In fact. It's a miracle your truck even drives without a drop bracket.

    You have literally no down travel now. Let me guess...Rides real rough?

    This thread....

    I've given up.

    This.

    You're CV now limits your downtravel, not your shock. And you shock limits your uptravel, not your bump stops. Worst of both worlds.

    Still sounds like a damn good deal to me. If you ever had plans for an aftermarket bumper, now sounds like the time to get on it. I paid $300 + stock rear for my 4x bumper. Accounting for cost, shipping, and painting, that seemed like a good deal.

    Plate is cool. Looks badass, and probably has a higher degree of protection when pushed to the limit. But for most usage, tube works just fine. And it weighs less, which is a huge benefit IMO.
    Also, I prefer the way tube looks :D
