    :woot: Thanks Monte for the awesome shots! I owe you one when Frank gets dialed :cool:

    Thanks fellas :) Glad some of you guys were able to clack some gears and enjoy some bumps in the truck! Also, sorry for the expensive ride :eek:

    Sure did Bob, Frank is a really fun/scary rig to drive :D Made me want LT :pout: Gonna stay MT though since it's my DD and I can go plenty fast for me with my setup :cool:

    Nick, I was going to hold on to the DSM arms for Gage (BabyTaco) if he wanted them, but if not they'll be going up for grabs :)

    I am interested in them. Once you get them off just PM me and let me know how much you're looking for. Not sure where I will be sitting with all the bigger purchases I just did haha.

    Sounds good man. Might take me a while to get to the new arms since the weather is cool and I don't have much space at all to work anymore...

    That's perfectly fine man! Gotta honor a man's word! I'd be in no hurry what-so-ever for them anyhow. And for that matter I have so much other stuff I want for my new truck that I may end up putting different uppers on the very end of the list and it'll be years til I want them

    Yea dude, I don't think i've driven something that was that much of a sensory overload! Was a straight blast. Frank is one unique beast :cool:

    haha, soon i'll be eating Franks dust! That's the fun part about those roads, trying to outpace each other without blowing up your rig :rofl:

    Right on :thumbsup:

    They're great arms and they'd stay on my truck if I wasn't solid mounting my lowers...

    Yea, I hear ya. Cold weather wrenching sucks.

    The only thing I don't like about Heimed arms is you've gotta take them off and put them back on several times each alignment. My local guy loves the LR arms which is partly the reason I love them

    Benders are cheap. It's the dies that drain accounts!

    Yes....I am NOT looking forward to setting the alignment. BUT once I get it set it's good until my frame bends :D

    Sad part is that it wouldn't be a big deal at all if there was 2 bolts holding the upper in place. That single long bolt is a killer!

    Secondly - could you weigh the DK UCA's when you get them? I want to compare their weight to the Icon billet UCA's.
