    Where the bushing is, I’ve seen it fail there a couple times. On my lcas I wrapped some 2x0.125 around the bushing eye and tied it into the arm.

    Looking forward to seeing what you do with getting rid of that lower brace. I have had an idea in my head for that for a while how I want to do a different skid and front frame area.

    I am replacing the aluminum crash bar with a fabricated steel one and tying the skid plate into it and then going to run a single tube coming out through the stock bumper cover... “push bar” as the trophy truck guys call it

    Yes the uppers don’t need to move. Pushing the lowers forward fixes the caster issues when lifting these trucks and gains tire clearance in the cab mount/firewall area
