HRT Offroad is a Canadian Carli dealer. They might have some takeoffs in good shape.

Not for the 03 and up model years. Do as danderson mentioned and check with HRT Offroad and see if they have a few takeoff arms in good shape or purchase new arms that can be rebuilt.

I just noticed these at Geno's garage. Energy Suspension products are excellent.

However if you any kind of lift in your truck, aftermarket, longer front control arms would be a better choice.
