Stock control arms?

Uppers or lowers keep going out? Michigan Metal Works has some nice looking upper arms. To my knowledge, nobody makes reasonably priced aftermarket lower arms.

Yes a lot of people like zone Offroad and cognitive make after control arms that are heavy duty to handle the larger tires and lifted suspension.
Thanks for the info

Cause you're like it has good power and it's bored over with 4.56's. Well no wonder lol that'll help anything with 37's.

Have an idea how it would do with 392's
I took this build over the lift, engine rebuild and gearing we're done. I'm on here to expand my knowledge on the more technical side of it.

Yea I was making fun or anything, just wasn't expecting it to have those upgrades done lol. I inquired not long ago on how these trucks would do with 37's and 3.92's cause my 35's are shot and was considering 37's. Not sure if I wanna lose any power or gas mileage since it still does good on my current set up. Just really wanted to try out the stt pros but they don't make a 35 for 18" rim.

Didn't realize I never posted mine in here haha 66e1e00e83c056e9014236fb0d037bc0.jpg 15d65e6407302e99b594573526b16203.jpg 7in lift.

Now for he fella that made the comment about IFS being lifted is useless and the only one that truly gets lifted is a SFA. That's not true in the slightest because the axle itself never actually is lifted the IFS have a bit more articulation for the curves and stuff.
Now on that note I will take a SFA over a IFS any day cause I prefer that system more. It isn't however superior they both have they're benefits and you didn't name any of them.
