    incorrect. as you can see the flange is higher quality stainless and hasnt rusted.

    the front cat was a universal fit magnaflow. because when you install the headers you have to modify the factory car anyway

    Mine are meant for a GMC, so they are valved for a lot of weight. I had to swap out the eyelet bushings. They are 11" shocks. They allow the dakars full down travel. I limited my uptravel more than I needed to in order to be sure I didnt bottom them out. So i will take two shims out and see how that helps, but not till after tuning them. They are due for a rebuild anyways.

    Hydros wont solve my issues, but they are sweet and tunable to get what you want out of them. Tough to put on a first gen if I recall though I could be wrong.

    It could be my up travel, but I will start with valving

    that place is overpriced...

    Hard? It basically just replaces your bump stop. Just weld the holder on the frame above the axle and done

    Relocating shocks outside the frame rails is hard on a 1st gen
