    The dual booster has just enough ass to move the new master, so I'm going to say the stocker won't cut it since it's a single diaphragm.

    Are adjustments made that often? If adjustments are made do you then setup the link with the heim initially half way threaded?

    I've made some adjustments to my upper link, drag link, and tie rod since the initial build, haven't really touched the lower links or the panhard bar. I personally start with the heims most of the way in, with about 5 threads showing. More thread engagement is better/stronger

    1997 t4r has super duty axles, 5.13s locked front and rear. 3 link front with 14" kings. Rear 63s.
    Truss came in. Artec low profile superduty. Box was busted and I’m assuming that’s where my second gusset went for the upper link

    Decided to change directions a little. Tons and 40s seem a little overdone these days. Gonna try for 5tons and 47s. These should be delivered in the next week or so. Just gotta figure out how I'm gonna move them.

    Think I’m going to order my kings this weekend. Was going to go with ads but have a guy local that has all the tools for a rebuild if I need it. This is a expensive ass project hahaha
