I have rare parts idler and pitman arm, I'm using a super steer idler pivot. The Moog stuff only got abt 3000 miles, the inner ball joints have abt 3/4 inch slop in them. I was reassured this would be the last set needed. I can't wait to see them, I've heard they are huge.

Brought it home to the Washington, D.C. area yesterday. This setup is very impressive. The front kyptonite stuff should be here tomorrow, also ordering the RCV front shafts in the am.

Need to get mirrors swapped out and front end parts on. The guy is ready to paint it.

You certainly have the "Sleeper" look going on with that truck. If I saw it on the street I would have no idea it has what it does under the hood.:thumb:

The z71 decals are coming off. Just haven't made it that far yet. The front cv shafts should ship Wednesday ish. I'm excited to say the least.

These are nice! :thumb: I like the sleeve on the joint much better than the hard plastic that always crack and get dirt logged. Why is that orange part round instead tube shaped like traditional shafts? If you don't mind me picking your brain.

They still have the rubber sleeve under the cover, it's a lot thicker then the oem stuff. I'm not sure why they did the shape like that on the outer joint.
