    yo linked, those arms are pretty cool I guess, Kinda sketchy though..
    we will have to see if they hold up as well as the op's he made all his fabrications with metal..

    And like he said the stock balljointss have grease and last longer.

    And op, how did you know that you could just add 8 inches of extension on flat un-gusseted pieces to the stock arms and it would still cycle correctly??

    thats crazy skill, Does it track straight? how bout through da whoops? you probably have zero bumpsteer..


    :rofl:

    I quoted you linked, so hopefully your post wont get deleted
    .



    I did it in stealth bro mode :spy:

    I am so hoping that the OP comes on and thinks that his bumpsteer is a good thing. If anybody knows about that I bet your post is shot

    Not like anybody is truly trolling, trying to tell the guy he is unsafe. Admin would be wrong to make us stop (like the ones over there are).

    He said why because they are progressive so when hitting a big bumb it will stiffen up the suspension so it doesent bottom out lol apparently he knows nothing about valving or bump stops
