Dick Cepek Long Arms on 3rd Gen
Dick Cepek Long Arms on 3rd Gen
Dont know if anybody has done this or not so I was simply trying to find out. I did a search and nothing on the 3rd Gens came up. If someone has made them work on a 3rd Gen please post pics and comments. Thanks in advance

You can email Thuren at dthuren@aol.com or call him at (805)886-9250 and leave a message because he usually doesn't answer.

Looks very similar to the Full Throttle Suspension set up, but I would wait to see what Don comes out with.

Looks like a hack job......especially the track bar drop. Geometry doesn't look right. Something doesn't look right with the upper CA mounts on the axle end either....

Yes...I agree with Cowhand.
It looks like the lower CA will hit the upper CA with and reasonable amount of uptravel.
All show and no go I am guessing.
Edit...
How much lift are you running...hence the minimal amount of sway bar drop?

You people crack me up
I love coming to this site. I look back at all the people who bought the Dick Cepek Longs arms from me wonder who took the idea to (Ben Owner) at Extreme Suspensions I did. I bet you did't know about 65% of his Long Arms have failed due to crapy bushings and weak metal they are made of. Best of all Ben at Extreme Suspensions wanted a set of these same arms to copy a while back when the 3th Gen came out in late 02. The place that are making these arms have changed the set up so that the arms will not so called hit one another when used off road. Back to these so called chity arms.. Full Throttle wants $1150.00 a set No cam kit. Whiplash has them for $1099.00 includes: upper and lower links w/bushings, link brackets, camber kits, and hardware wonder. Funny how Theres kits look a lot like the ones I have on my truck funny how that works. I welcome all feedback. But intill you have seen the truck in person or taken a ride don't bash. I have lifted well over 15 2006 3/4 & 1 Tons for the local Dodge Dealer with this same 10 inch kit. Wonder why they don't have any problems nor the customers with the lift or arms.

Here are some photos of an 05 Dodge 3/4 He has the Same arms .. His are a lot closer then mine.
