    There's a tiny chance you could just replace the bushings in them. I know nothing about FabTech shocks or part availability/interchangeability. My OME shocks with 46k on them are slightly off center, but the bushings still have some lift in them.

    Thank you. Main goal right now is to get Jeanine back on the road. Truck is stuck at a shop waiting for these parts. Shocks will get changed sometime after all this.

    I know a guy in Loomis, CA who races in the Hammers. He has a shop and the secondary goal is to take the truck to him so he can do a nice look and recommend next steps.

    One of my OME Shock bushings was super worn out. I emailed ARB asking for help on part numbers where I can buy replacements.
    They sent me new ones at no charge.

    I’ve had to contact ARB customer service a couple times. They’re always quick and helpful.

    Have done a few things over the past couple of months. First I replaced my battery with a larger 27F battery, and tray from a tundra at the end of January.

    around the same time I installed a glass breakage sensor for the TVIP system, but I don’t think it’s working cause the LED never flashes.

    and last week I installed a set of new/used headlight housings with a projecter retrofit done.

    Picked up LBJ with spindle and control arms attached, lifetime warranty from Napa. Also grabbed a clutch kit. Man at the register sold me a $3 bucket deal. You buy a $3 bucket and Napa gives you 20% off, saved me nearly a hundred bucks!

    Finally finished my front bumper. I don't think it is too bad being my first bumper and not having a tube bender. IMG_20200415_122750_9.jpg

    I’m glad you finally got it. I remember reading your other post I’m the BAMF bed rack thread and I thought you were slowly dying on the inside from the wait time :rofl:
