    Yes, Downsouth told me end of dec (couple of months). I account for longer lead times for holidays that people take off. So I'm not expecting them in until January. I'm not to concerened with how long it takes to get them. He did say he had Kings on the shelf that he could get done right away. But Since I started with fox I'm sticking to them.

    o_O Sorry to say bud but I have no clue what you're trying to ask me. "holes on side to rosette the box the bung is going in"

    Not sure if you seen the whole link I designed. This is just the inside of the link. I still need to add the outter shell. I need to bend several plates. I'm far from done.

    I was reading something where some racing guys had seen the bungs ripped out of the tube they were held in by if not welded inside like he was saying.

    I think the holes would be bigger for a truck link but this is the idea basically.

    Yeah made that thing years ago. Forgot I left it outside and it got all rusted but it still worked. It's coming along for sure. Super excited to see them done. Hopefully the shock bolt holes work :fingerscrossed:

    Lifted, Armored, needs more lights.
    Nice Progress Ray, been awhile since I wondered in here. That looks like a bunch of welding went into it.
