Yep, tis a shame Bear, but since they went to IFS on the 1500 4x4s, the 4x2 1500 guys can get away with more lift and bigger tires than we can. Sad, isn't it?

I'm pretty sure this is a CV joint.




And here's the drop bracket for the torsions.

Good catch HOSS!!! I guess that's what I get for not using technology and blowing up the picture.
And judging from that spot of light 90% from it, it's looking like that angle is a bit severe. Love the look, but its a CV nightmare waiting to happen, I'm afraid...

Yeah, but I believe there are places to get high angle CV's now. I'd find it hard to swallow that KORE is the only one to have them and they only come in the $2,500 kit.
