Ok.. so my heims are rattling.. driving me nuts.. and the heims used a military grade I guess.. and I can not find the thread ANYwhere.. so I have to replace everything... my question is.. would this kit look good and function properly on my truck? It does not have adjustment.... but A couple kits ive seen do not have any.

These seem to be priced good... I really hate having to spend a 1000 or more on a long arm kit!!

Thoughts?

Unless you have a wheelin' beat. Heim joints will be nothing but problematic for a mainly street going vehicle. Get arms that have standard poly bushings and enjoy the improved ride quality and quietness.

You should be able to get a shop to make you bars that just replace the ones you have now, without those stupid heims.
