    I thought you were all about the sleeper action? Your truck should stick to the Xii drop because it's too fast!

    Don't be discouraged by a few parts that have been defective, hundreds if not thousands of these control arms have been installed. If you based your purchases on a few bad batches, you should sell your vehicles now and walk everywhere, they all have defects.

    As far as tire size, I run a 275/40r17 which I believe is 26" and the little 2.7 will still destroy them.


    My opinion, don't over think things just slam that b_tch.
