    His ride height is full bump lol. How is he supposed to pull 20" of travel with a 1.5:1 motion ratio? Then he wouldn't drop any panties :laugh:

    2:1 definitely needed.

    The better coast

    You took your truck on a dirt path (looks like a driveway) and that "beat it up? :p

    If you're going to be fabbing your own stuff...it would be wise to have an open mind. I see cali plates...? If so go check out some real LT systems in so cal if you're hard pressed to make your own.

    Yeah they're angled at ride height so they're close to perpendicular to the lower arm at bump.

    His crappy welds are BETWEEN the lower shock mount and the spindle.
