    Stock mounts suck. I just replaced mine with solid mounts but you also need to solid mount the transmission. Next is the perches off the frame

    Ask for James, he is the owner...sometimes hard to get on the phone. I would suggest just stopping by the shop, get to see the cool race trucks they are working on right now.

    Not sure, mine was the prototype kit so I know I didn't pay retail.

    I would talk to James about it and see what he says. I'm sure they are still a few weeks out from production to the masses.

    How many inches over each side is the kit?

    Is it TIG'd or MIG'd?

    Are the upper control arms using bushings or do they have heims so you can solid mount the lowers?

    Travel numbers?

    Have you seen it cycled/checked bumpsteer?

    Are they making their own axles for 4WD's or is it built to be able to use TC or Camburg's axles?

    Same question for tie rods



    Thanks
