    It's currently at Desolate Motorsports right by that location in SFS. The truck will be all done in the next couple of weeks. So yes you can stop by one day and check it out just let us know when you want to! :thumbsup:

    @T-rev mine unsplined at a cun* hair over 30tons of force. When total chaos says you need a 20ton press to install them they were not kidding... suckers are really in there!

    @CaliRaisedLed are your spindle gussets different than the total chaos ones? Mine look way different. IMG_1246.jpg

    Good to know. Just trying to figure out if this is something I can do myself when the times comes. I've installed or at least worked on everything front suspension wise minus replacing axle shafts or messing with tie rods.

    It looks like you have the non-sway bar version of the spindle gussets, is that right?

    @T-rev yes I do but with long travel suspension the sway bar will not work. So I'm just curious what @CaliRaisedLed has because the sway bar spindle gussets w/ sway bar mounts that total chaos sell wouldn't work with the +2 kit. And the axles are a bitch and there is a lot of welding so keep that in mind!

    Well I don't weld so it looks like I'm out haha.

    It looks like OP has the sway bar version. From what I understand the sway bar version still works on LT setups, they just can't use the sway bar.
