Dumb question I am sure but if I decided to give a center link a try that would eliminate me having to worry about all the supports (idler, pitman, center link)?
Question: What is everybody running or recommend for are IFS and keeping everything together?!?

They would still be weak points but would probably hold fine. Just do the whole front end!
Rare parts tierods, crankitupdiesel centerlink, cognito braces. She launches Awsome. Although i haven't launched the truck since I lowered it on mcgaughy drop keys yet. Should be ok.

Sleaves and Allseason brace keys down to stock hight and it air is like a charm for launching and seld pulling I am running 285 65 18 -12 offset with trail grapplers and I launch at 10 or so psi just as good as a straight axel truck hope this helps ya out
I am running cognito upper arms, and braces with Kryptonite center link and tie rods. I am still concerned with cvs due to my angles. However no issues yet...

Hmm... Thanks for the help guys! Def gives me an idea of what all I need to add on to my front end to not have to worry when launching.
There is a big difference between the kryptonite straight center link and the other straight center links and its all in how the inner tie rod attaches. Because of how Dmax store made theirs with the inner tie rod behind the centerlink, you do not get the bump steer, tire scrub the other center links give
Any of the suggestions above will be better than where your at now.
The cheap/strong way is a straight centerlink that uses stock inner tie rods and a set of sleeves. Pretty proven
The best all around with a factory feel and drive is the kryptonite setup but it will cost a pretty penny.

If your gonna keep low and want a centerlink, get the kryptonite. Otherwise get braces. My turning radius since I lowered mine more is not pleasant. When I had it leveled it wasn't that bad. Now I think a 2003 crew cab long bed 4x4 F250 has a better turning radius than me. 
I'm going to braces here soon when I have the time to do it.

Leveled with keys? The keys are still gonna hurt. And they replace the cognitos.
Thats what I thought. And it isn't leveled with keys. Just have the stockers cranked. I deceded not to do keys for exactly that reason, I just deal with a shit ride haha. I don't have them cranked all the way though and it still almost clears 305/55/20s
My truck had they keys cranked for a bit and the brace was fine! you good to go! :thumb:
Ten-4 good buddy. I'm hoping it helps my toe in issue at the track. Even with the bars down, sleeves, and braces she liked to do some strange things anytime I launch over 10-12psi.
tonys brace doesnt know the difference between leveled, lowered or stock. only when a lift kit is put on is when the issue arises.
I run the comp series Kryptonite parts on back trucks and cut in the 1.5s no problem. I DD it on my black truck too with no abnormal tire wear.
