Hey Guys I'm overseas at the moment and the wife is driving the truck with my little girl in it and I noticed when I was home on leave my tie rods are in bad shape and my abs light is intermittent so i'm thinking that's my Hubs I run 37's so I assume its the hubs the brakes never act up.. so im gonna say off the parts im thinking about getting and would appreciate some feed back on what manufacture you prefer.

tie rods center link :

Kryptonite or Cognito

Idler Arm Pitman Arm:

Moog with Kryptonite Warranty is what im thinking

Upper A Arms:

Cognito
Kyrptonite
Readylift

Shocks:

some kind of billstein

Im going to go down from a 37 to a 35 to help the wife out with the height of the truck she's short :hug: truck has no lift just cranked bars. any help would be appreciated

This should be plenty IF you keep it greased.

Super Steer SS175 $202.50 was $175.00 when I bought mine 2months ago

So after much deliberation I'm planning on going with the moog XD idler and pitman arm kit that comes with the krypton its support and all three have the krypton it's warranty
The rare parts tie rods RP28559G2, billstien 5100 shocks all the way around, timken hubs and still waiting to talk to someone on the UCA's my Issue is I need to make sure the UCA's aren't bigger than factory Bc my tire/rim rubs when suspension fully drops at high speed on the stock arms so I don't want any that are bigger.

I ran 5100s on 2 trucks and my newest I went with rancho 9000xl adjustable shocks, in my opinion I like them a lot better

Yea I literally just read a article where they were talking about getting better shocks if you have a aftermarket front bumper and I'll have one in a week or so. May just go with some adjustable resivoir shocks
