Just a few questions:

1) Was it a bumper pull?
2) How long do you think ball joints should last?
3) Have you heard from the new owner?

Nadir, you're my hero!!:tu::tu:


Some folks just don't understand that changing the front end geometry of your truck, via lifts only, has adverse effects on front end components!!!! Seems like they'd rather have a "cool looking" truck rather than a "safe driving" truck!!!!

The things my '07 is still missing are the arms, coils and shocks. Although I did modify the stock shocks to space down about an inch with shims on the top mounts. It drives nice, but still doesn't feel quite right and the tires rub ever so slightly on the fender corners. You can tell by looking from the side they are not centered in the wheelwells, even with the eccentrics full forward.

I have the coils and new Bilsteins sitting in the garage, and expect to find a set of arms and upgraded stabilizer kit from Don Thuren on my doorstep when I get home any day now. Then and only then after I get a day to work on it and get all that stuff installed will it be 100% right.

Hey, no prob - I don't want to see other people have the hassles like I did when I bought my '07 after the PO ran it with nothing but pucks for a year.
