Those look nice, may have to invest in that. I put tape on all the door latches b4 this last w.v. trip and it helped a ton! My one door with the mod done has a quart of slime tow strap vise grips and a flat n Phillip's screw driver does sag a little but it's not bad enough to not latch

 

[aauman88]

Oh yeah

Looks very good man! How much are those a arms?

 

[aauman88]

850ish for front and rear with ball joints pressed in from HighLifter. Very heavy duty and beefy setup for sure. I love them

Not too bad, so it will be a pain to replace those ball joints when they wear out right?

No clue about changing ball joints. Never have had to do it but I have a new set of SATV ones on bench ready if I need them. These are upgraded ball joints though not OEM so they should be good for awhile

Yea not anything I would worry about. I'm curious to hear if the machine is any more top heavy with those changes made?

Cool deal. I have a set of rear lowers on the way. How much clearance did it give you over the stock arm on the rear? I road last Thursday and had several tire scrubs on the rear fender. I have 30's on mine. I need some clearance big time

 

[aauman88]

It doesn’t move the tire on the rear so no added tire clearance. It’s just an arched arm for more ground clearance. I have 2” wheel spacers on rear and 1” on front. The front arms are arched and pushed forward 1.5” and I’m running 2.5” HighLifter bracket lift for now until I get the 814 shocks

I guess that means I'll have to get some of those high priced shocks.

 

[aauman88]

What wheel setup are you running because my 31” clear fine in rear. I only did the a arms to get clearance in front.

Wheel offset?
Lift?
Any wheel spacers?
