    Does anyone know if Camburgs 3.5” LT kit for 2005+ trucks requires a special bypass layout?
    I know they need a shorter rod end and 1.25” spacers, but don’t see why I couldn’t order Fox #980-02-212 from Accutune or DownSouth and change those parts.

    You ask about MiG work when he posts up some of the better Tig welds we’ve seen in recent past? Those are some beauties

    You're correct. I meant TiG. That’s why I asked. Some beautiful welds.

    That’s what happens when I post before I’ve had any coffee. :anonymous::facepalm:
