    Genuinely curious to see what shipping will be like for those. Apparently, my local 4x4 shop has them in stock. Not sure if Ark does what this company does where they cut them to order.

    I understand that it's not always the best to just have products sitting there, but to have to wait 6-7 weeks for pieces of rubber? Come on.

    Already have one for the garage. Love it. This kit is to keep in the truck.

    I lost all my old ARB stuff that came with the kit. It's somewhere that I cannot get it back from if you know what I mean.

    I'm not Rand fancy...

    Grease gun is for the garage. The air tools are for the truck. Needs to be small and compact.

    Too bougie for my taste for something that will only get used a handful of times.

    Stuff... Need more stuff
    @geekhouse23,

    I enjoy reading you thread..

    I have a question about your front end rebuild... Which lower control arms did you install? I saw in the Garage Shop:Tools thread (I think) you wanted to go with the Whiteline bushings. Did you install these on a aftermarket LCA? I looked back in your thread and didn't find it..

    I have a squeak that is driving me crazy and I need fix it before I drive my truck off a cliff.. I'm just trying to figure out which direction I want to go.. Thanks.

    OEM replacement until I can ball out on aftermarket lowers. And you're correct. I went with whiteline bushings.

    Hopefully you can find the source of the squeak.

    Excited to use my new setup
