    What does every one do with the parking brake cable once you go SUA? or is it not in the way? it looks right in the way of where the springs would be...

    how are most you guys running your SUA? the leading end of the leaf closest to the hood mounted under the frame?
    and the rear end closest to bumper outside the frame with just a flipped and extended shackle?

    The triple wrapped part goes to the front Hanger. Not sure about the shackles besides the fact that you need new hangers along with the flipped shackles.

    You also need a new hanger for the front mounts, stock ones wont work with the 50T.

    basically all i know is tripple wrap up front.. thats easy.. under the frame though right? with stock front hangar or new one?

    and the rear will sit outside the frame with new hangar and new shackle?

    Yes under the axle. New front hanger, rear hanger/shackles.

    I don't really understand your second question but if its about the shackle assembly being on the outside then yes, wherever your rear stuff is right now it'll look pretty much the same but bigger and inverted. I would have Kibbe do some sort of hanger crossmember from Bolt to bolt or just pick up the one that Defined makes and box the frame.

    Call them up tomorrow. I'd assume as businessmen they'd refund you $120 and send some sleeves your way.

    sorry about the mix up Blake...

    i literally thought of that promo and made the flyer at 9am this morning, so i had no idea what deal you had made with Hassim last week...

    give him a call tomorrow and talk to him... the way i set up coupons, customers need to use the promo code when they purchase for our R.O.I. (Return On Investment) marketing analysis...
