    I honestly think its kinda hard to notice with a-armed/steering rack equiped trucks. But i baught this truck without the sway bar so i can't comment on the difference. It handles good though.

    My front bilstein shocks that slide into the coil-over threaded sleave thingy are for a stock f-250. The stiffer valving for the bigger chasis really works well for handling without a sway bar and higher speed offroading.

    no i haven't. Just tried to flip my bj on the driver side back to the top of the spindle and it royaly fucked my camber to / \. I can't bring my upper a-arm back in toward the bucket as i re-located and re-welded my upper a arm support shaft to close to the bucket. I just put the bj back under the spindle as i need to drive it to work in the morning... Fuck. i put a lot of work into dialing this suspension in becasue the ball joint was on the wrong side of the spindle and now i have to reverse everything i've done.

    At least i Got my starter re-built tonight.
