    Just finished the install and it wasn't fun. I gave myself 2 days in case anything went wrong. I ground down the rivet heads and prayed the hanger off. I used a ball joint press on the lower ones which was awesome and pretty quick. The top ones were a little more difficult to get with the ball joint press and with only one set of hands it didn't go so well. I drilled all the way through what was left of the rivets up to 1/4 inch then used a punch and pounder the rest of it out which saved me some time. Once that was done the rest was a piece of cake but those rivets are no joke and an extra set of hands would have been very helpful. The first pic is my badge of honor and the second is the finished product. Now to test them and I'm sure they will be way better than stock. Oh and I did trim my Dakars I took the disc and used that as a template because I wanted to keep them then just trimmed the width of it so we will see if that is enough. 20200203_125723.jpg 20200203_125826.jpg

    I recommend cutting the old hangers off just below the frame before attacking the rivets. Getting the hanger our of the way helps.

    Nice, might want to make sure you get a cross brace up in there. A good solid slide hit from the side could bend the frame. Frames on these trucks are pretty weak. Glad you got this knocked out.

    I purchased them off another member a few weeks ago so I didn't have to wait.

    The second leaf doesn't look to go all the way back so I don't think anything would need to be cut maybe shaved for clearance.

    Will be installing the RXT pack this weekend, but not the hangers. I'll dry fit to see where it needs to be shaved. Full suspension install this weekend so the BAMF hangers/shackles have to wait for another weekend.
