Does anyone know where to get a good bolt on bow tie for the grill? I have a piece of mesh for the lower, but ran out of daylight to put it on.

Looking to go back with torsion bars, or running dual coil overs on the front end. I can't get the spring rate needed to keep the front end up.
The Rancho shocks I have on mine cannot control the rebound with the torsion bars, most noticeable on the uneven clover leaf type freeway ramps when traveling faster than posted limit. othrgrl is who explained to me best although he called a donkey dance, are you using dual adjustable shocks for compression and rebound.?
Yes they are dual adjustable, the issue is the spring rates. With three 400 series turbos under the hood the front end is heavy.
Never though about the weight of the turbos, your truck has to push into corners pretty heavily. Needs a counter balance like 300 lbs. of sand bags near the tailgate, try it once and see what happens....:woott:
I'll just leave this here.... 
can't remember the outfit that builds these but a guy could fab it up relatively easy.
That looks good, Need to get something like that in the works. Where did you find that pic? Thank you for the idea.
Fabtech Motorsports is one of the company's that makes those dual front shock systems. There are several others but Fabtech seems to be one of the more commonly used "go-to" systems.
Honestly it was a picture that I had saved from a while ago and don't remember the source. I will look and see if I can find the.
I found out, it's pure performance. I found the web sight, they want 6500 for the kit..... we will be making something similar for mine.
Good find and thank you for posting it, I appreciate it.

James has been working on coilover conversions on these trucks for sometime. He may have some ideas on how to get it to work properly.
Uh no, they had a single coilover kit for 8" lift kits years ago but discontinued it due to lack of sales. Pure performance is the originator of the dual coilover kit and the arms are not stock width.
