    You can go back. Just need someone to weld in a crossmember where it was cut out. Maybe it’s worth looking into before you get yourself deeper into this.

    Yea I'm a fabricator I can build anything. It's not worth going back to stock anymore though. I just need to get the back end sorted out then I'm going to do a sas, once I get all the parts together. I just need it to handle good for now to get through the winter.

    The other problem with going stock is I would need all the stock parts to put back on. I don't have any of it.

    I just meant go back to a suspension lift and not a drop bracket. All you need is something for the front like 5100s.

    I'm (apparently) having a problem with Deaver as well...
    Was quoted a price and a timeline of 2 weeks to produce.
    Placed the order and patiently waited the 2 weeks.
    Inquired as to the status of my order and was told "hopefully late next week".
    OK.
    Things happen.
    Patiently waited another week.
    Inquired again.
    And got no reply.
    Followed up the next day, (This last Saturday), and here it is after 2pm (California time) on Monday of the 4th week, and still no response...
    Will wait another day or 2, then try calling instead of emailing.
    But the lack of response after 2 email inquiries is not living up to my desired customer service standards...

    Yeah, I've got a severely sagging all pro standard pack (one side only) that's only a few months old... can't get a response back from them on what to do. So wasted money on garbage, and probably spending money again on something else to replace them. F*** All Pro.
