    Thank you sir!! Will be picking up a spare for my trail repair kit

    I am also excited to hear about your feedback with his Coil overs! They are the ones I will most likely be picking up next year to replace the 5100 lift I started with.

    So it appears that the angle on the arms has been corrected then... Has Marlin made any comments to you about the outcome of your alignment, or adjustments to the jig?

    Thanks. I will talk to Marlin soon.

    @tyfoon11 J -- Have you got your truck aligned yet?!? Anybody else with the HD Arms want to post up their alignment results?

    Ive been running ~3.75 inches of lift (5100 on 2nd clip, OME spring, marlins arms) for over a year now, just did an overhaul to check everything out and so far no excess ware on anything. Yea the angle may look a lil bit extreme but in all honesty, really see no issues and rides great

    I haven't been able to get mine in for an alignment yet, wife's car had to be in the shop for a few days first so I was relegated to taxi duty. Planning on this week and I'll post up numbers when I get them.

    For my Liberty UCAS it's Moog part number k 6292. They look like the same ones to me, I'd think he'd run the same ball joints on all his arms. Napa has an alternate for them that I've been running for a year now no problems.

    had mine done on Thursday, don't remember the exact #'s, left the paper at home. will post them when I remember, but they were pretty close to what I wanted. still feeling slight pull to the right, and since I did some dumb shit at Pismo this weekend my wheel is all out of whack again. oh well, back to Firestone this week I go....

    J, Please take the time to post your numbers ASAP (like maybe tonight?). My alignment issue is still unresolved, and I am depending on neutral parties (like you), to verify if they are getting correct values for alignment. I may have to take my truck for a third alignment at a third alignment shop. I don't think it will help in my case. And it is so painful as my time is so limited... Thanks.
