    They are a 1" longer to so less preload and more pleasure :D

    I would like to get one of the rear HC from the auction :rofl:


    I would still get it, Pelfreys won't be affected at all they already made that money, now it's just a good deal for someone needing an IFS.

    Aluminum would be a good option for you @cubie base on what I've seen you plan to do with the truck.

    They have confirmed that's not the case, the bank is behind the auction from what I have heard.

    Hey everyone, new here. Without digging through all 5000 of the posts on here, who's all from the Etowah county area?

    Thanks! I'm looking forward to playing around a bit with these Yotas. I've got an 86 Pickup right now, and I'm planning on buying a TRDOR pretty soon with 6mt.

    BTW, I spend a good amount of time in Ashville, so I'm no stranger to St. Clair. Where do people go off road around here? I got out of 4x4s for a while and I have no idea where to go lol.

    I'm an active member on Bladeforums and we have had the same problem over there with custom makers taking money and not delivering. I'd hate to wear a name that has a stigma of bad business attached to it! I'd rather support the good guys with my money!

    The rear axle is centered by your leaf pack. It really just floats back there. You bent something for it to shift and not recenter. Maybe a shock, blew a bushing, sheared the leaf pack bolt, twisted a frame mount. Really hard to say.

    Very well respected for a long time. I even discussed my build (coil overs, rear springs, bumpers) a lot with them when I first bought my truck. Very knowledgeable and bought my Icons based on their recommendations. Didn't get one of their bumpers but they were doing very well at the time. Lots of back and forth about what happened.

    Nothing yet, and I am not looking very hard but if something pops up then I’m in.
