A-arms come from Sporttruckdirect.com and cost $360.
You get new Endlinks for the swaybar and some nice Bumstops.
The bumbstops, endlinks and bushings on the A-Arms seem to all be Energy Suspension.

Like RobG said these things are built like a tank.

Harry, will post photo's Friday of how it looks and rides.

How come ya didn't get the rear c'notch kit also? or did you? Just curious because I was thinking of adding the front a-arms and the rear c-notch kit in ADDITION to my roush setup so it'll drop it a little more.

Just wondering

Can't wait to see pics of her!


Goodluck

Jack

I'm only going 2/3 for now, so no baby C-notch.
I only need a c-notch if I'm going less than 3/4.

With my set-up I can easily go to a 3/4 drop, just need 1" drop springs.

It is a very easy piece to do. I did mine.
What you do is take the piece off the tailgate. There is 6 clips.Get a piece of wood. Drill 6 holes were the clips are (essentially making a jig).lay the piece on the board ,so now it sits flat and will not vibrate. Then use a palm sander.60 grit, 100, 200,400. It took about 2 hours to get the piece level and smooth for painting.It is very easy because the piece is flat and level.

thats good info Vinn...Im not much of a craftsman myself, Im leaving the smoothing up to Steve since he and his buddy are so good at smoothing the plastic stuff. They showed me an almost complete set of smoothed side steps that are going to look great, and he and I both are going to have the back window trim smoothed and painted body color. His buddy barley spent 30 seconds smoothing a 3 or 4 inch section of the window trim and its going to be perfect. I cant friggin wait, my truck is going to be 100% plastic free at last, like a ghost or something
