    I asked in the SC bs thread and people said they could possibly get damaged. I didn't see a problem with them there.

    I say stop listening to what others think.. Put them there, I think you'd have to have a totalled truck to worry about killing resis there..

    I would think it would come down to aligment and BS of the wheel if it smashes that resi. I would just lift the front of your truck and full crank left/right and check for yourself mang.


    Me in this thread while working

    Pretty sure nobody in the SC BS thread said the Resi would get damaged in that location. I think @Jeffvt0508 was speaking about damage to the frame in a minimal front impact (with his front impact fresh in his mind) but I'm speculating on his thoughts. :notsure:

    You were asking for assistance/ideas from Eddy on using the reinforcements and having to move the Resi mounts. I mentioned that with Eddy's reinforcement plates, you don't have to relocate the resi's. :thumbsup:

    Definitely...but I do agree with @Mothman above. Put them suckers on and mount the resi since you've already got them. :cheers:

    I've never once made contact with my resis in that location. Neither from rocks or tires throughout full range of motion.
