Here's a pic of them tacked together. Still gotta plate em in and put in another bar. These things should hold up a tank. Every time I look at the BLF arms they just don't look beefy enough for an 8k pound truck. They look fine for a 1/2 ton but a crew cab 1 ton with a BBC on the front is alot of weight coming down when it hits a big bump. I'd be afraid theirs would fold up so we just built our own out of some 1 1/4" .140 wall. I'll get some more pic's once they are finished. This is just a pic of the 2 bars and the balljoint ring. The bag that I got sitting in it is just a small bag my buddy used to bag his golf cart.

Here's a pic from the outside looking in. It's set up for my 24's with a 33" tire.. 295/35/24.



The balljoin locks out at 28 Degrees. We set the ride height at 4". They are 1.5" shorter than stock to give me some room to turn while tucking rim..

I've been around bro.. JUst haven't touched the Dually so I've had nothing new to report.. But now that it's finally under the knife I'll be back every day. Just hate to read about what everyone has been doin to theirs when mine has just been chillin out in the back lot at work.


He's making a template of everything so I'm sure he'd make another pair or so once we get mine finished. But it's not really gonna be a bolt on kinda thing because we are raising my upper arms 2" to help with the camber at full drop.
