The design change came down to a couple of reasons, fit and finish were definitely number one. We're able to machine down to a much tighter tolerance than welding steel. Installation is simpler than before, the Anodized finish does not vary and is extremely crisp and durable. I also wanted to take advantage of how Toyota designed the frame rails. The new billet shackles are supported much better now and are able to use a roll motion rather than pivot directly off the bolts. Both versions still exceed the limits of the Truck by atleast 3 times and I'm happy to see our Brand name on the part Hope this helps.
Yes, I received my +3s on Monday! My OME lift came in last Friday, so everything is sitting in the garage ready to go. I need to call in sick this week!
Hey coach...may take these and install them with a buddy of mine this morning. Is there a left or right side specific? I suppose the engraving may need to point out and towards the back...let me know.
Sounds good, they'll fit either way but if they're installed with logo facing back Ford, Chevy and Dodge owners will be able to see what you're sportin'
The new version has a few added features making installation a breeze. If you run into any trouble my phone is on. Thanks!
I have a set of Hellwig Pro-Series Helper Springs and will be installing the Rancho Quicklift coils in the front. I expect to get 2.25-2.5 inch lift in front and would like to kepp the factory rake. How much for a set of +2 shakles? Thank you
OK so started working around 930 and was done by noon. That's after running to get the ball joint press to press out the factory leaf bushings. Install was very straight forward and actually hard to do it wrong.
Now here is how its sitting after taking it for a ride and letting everything settle in. Ride is more fluid and controlled...letting the rear suspension cycle much better....does not seem so harsh and binding.
Got my new billet shackles installed the other day. Out them on with some deaver k37 leafs. The rear end doesn't jump off the speed bumps any more. Heading out to the dezert Halloween to test out the new setup.
