    Do what I did. Looked online at dealers in the area and found one locally with 20% off. Saw that and jumped on it.

    Awesome, thanks for the info man. I'm planning on lifting mine as well, and I have no experience replacing suspension components so I'd love to know what your process was.

    they are 1.25". just make sure that you use some Loctite on the threads and re-check them after 100 miles or so. no issues on trails at all so far.

    Removable LocTite of course. There are several different types. Sure that you know that but I'm also sure there are some that do not. Not trying to be a wise guy just helpful. :thumbsup:

    I didn't know there was a removable type. I just use blue or red, whichever I grab. On my roof rack I used blue. On my Predators I used red. :notsure:

    LocTite makes a wide range of thread locks, bearing retainers and adhesives. It would be wise to use the correct type for each specific application. If in doubt I recommend referring to their site for specific applications.

    Added a TRD Skid PLate. I was going to have it powder coated black, but the silver powder coating it came with was so nicely done I decided to leave it as is for now. I may change my mind down the road.

    Always use the blue on anything you may need to remove later on.
