Longer trailing arms? where?
Longer trailing arms? where?
I would like to install some longer trailing arms for my 2001. I have 2" spacers and the wheel sits a little too far back after the lift. I would like to move it back to where it should be. Who sells these arms? Thanks

Yah, Those are very nice, I'm not sure I want to pay that much for them, I saw another brand somewhere, that were made of square tube. Anybody else have info on these arms? Thanks

The control arms out of the 3" lift kit will work. I have a set layin here I havent had time to put on yet. The Control arm bolt diameter changed some time around 98-99 so be sure and get your year specific bushings and sleeves out of the kit too. You can drill out the sleeves from an earlier year if you have to. I paid $175 for the 4 arms bushings & sleeves.

the 3'' tough country lift comes with a 3'' coil spacer and arms for the front if you have a 2'' spacer you could get away with the 3'' lift arms but why not just go to a whole 3'' lift? I just put a 3'' lift from suspention conection on my truck. I put the spacer on the D25 coil for now till I can get a larger coil made and the ride is not that bad. Put it right were it needs to be not to high but higher than stock. I clear my 35 no problems.

Yup they should. I dunno when I'll have the time school and work are keeping me busy. But they came off HOTMOPR 's truck you could PM him and ask. Here is a link to his photo gallery, all of the pictures on the first page, and the first few on the 2nd page have them installed.

. You can have my old ones if you want 'em....pay the shipping and you'll own your very own set of pink 4.5" coils that will result in about 3.5" of lift and a crappy ride....Coil Spring Specialties makes a way better coils for about $20-30 more than the Skyjunkers, and you can specify a softer spring rate.
