Well, after modifying the hangers to accept the longer Ford Ranger shackles, I wanted to gusset and build a brace for the hangers. So I did. VERY solid...

This definitely made a difference! The truck corners so much better and it tracks better through turns. Amazing how much this brace helped and I love the fact you can feel it immediately...
