Still waiting on my dam braces. They were supposed to be here last week wednesday. I just got a tracking number yesterday and says they should be here next week tuesday. But i guess that's what you get when you buy something from a vendor that doesn't stock the products they sell at all.

Finally got my braces Friday but my "assistant" was in florida on vacation until last night so hopefully get this buttoned up and get some results back to you this week.

Did ball joints last night. Everything seems good for now, hopefully get pitman and idler done some time later this week. On a side note, I found out that my shocks that i got two months ago are completely blown out. I guess i shoulda got the extended mounts on a little sooner haha.

Well, you get what you pay for. considering the safety factor of using a cheap part, I would make it priority of using a quality part.

 

[gl4787]

Okay... Thanks for that.

Did you get a chance to compare the pit / idler to look parts?

Waiting to hear on the other installs thanks.

Hopefully jumpin on the steering stuff tomorrow. Haven't even pulled the skid plate to look yet. I really hope i have a three groove pitman. Does anyone know why on napa's web site the three groove pitmans are like $30 more than the four groove ones?

The Gm oem one is the same way it cost more for the 3 then the 4.

what was the final outcome with this kit? Its been almost 6 months, you should be able to tell if these are junk or are just a good cheap alternative

spend the money on quality parts. I've learned this with my 97 jeep crawler. good parts last. shitty parts suck to replace every yr or less

haven't had any problems yet.. feels just like when i bought it. I've been keeping everything greased up pretty good.
