    And the thing is if you actually offroad it and you get into a situation where you are flexing the front and the back at the same time it will rub more. I clearanced my fenders 5 times and I finally got the scraping to stop.

    Like so.

    I just did mine...overall not a bad job at all. Hardest part was getting the high pressure lines off/on the rack.

    What brand R&P did you end up going with?

    It was a napa one. I did this 5 months ago and the inner seals were shot already. luckily it was under warranty. I hate putting the high pressure lines back on. used poly bushings on this one, ones that came on the other rack were completely shot.

    Been doing ball joints and replacing cv's lately too, I hope i'm done done with my front end for a while now.

    Haha i'm hoping my napa one lasts longer this time with the new bushings. My truck seams to eat inner tie rods and steering racks though...That's why i've switched to warrantied racks.

    I greased all the u-joints and painted the wheels. The factory finish was pretty blah after all those years.

    I wish I had more room sometimes. lol It's roughly 26'x40' and the concrete slab outside is 20'x30'. I freeze my nuts off in the middle of winter though, even with the wood burning fireplace down there it's hard to get it to 50ish. :(
