    Going to need more specs on the truck & kit etc to make that decision...but LT is going to be stiff either really (at low speeds). :cool:

    Have you read through Chase's thread on LT?

    To much to list!
    the kit runs a 1" uniball. The uniballs are pretty standard in size when you call most shops. There are different series of uniballs out there some better then others. but im sure the uniballs you need are 1" center bore, 2.125" outside diameter and 1.375tall. Im not sure what kind of uniballs Engage uses but my suggestion is spend a little bit of money and get good uniballs. But when I was shopping around Dave that Threat motorsports in Lake Elsinore has some of the best prices and you hear good things about the heims and uniballs he sells. Hope everything works out.

    I've got a question...

    How come the single seater truck that Ivan Stewart raced had Independent Rear Suspension, but the trophy trucks of today, run a solid axle? Is this because of the travel numbers? I always thought IRS was better performance wise.
