thanks!

you're the first person to comment on it and it's on 3 other forums!

kinda pisses me off...i saw so many people screaming they wanted a how-to on these bars, so i make a dang video and nobody but you really says anything...

i don't need praise, i'd just like to know that it's being used..

thanks guys! like the video shows, the installation is so simple! It's crazy...

and i took no time for preparation...i just walked out in the garage to have my morning cigarette, and bree was at work, so i said to hell with it, backed the truck in the garage and got started...it's that easy

a shackle flip or a SUA conversion?

if you're talking about a shackle flip then you do it the exact same way that i did in the video...

if you're talking about a SUA conversion (spring under) you can't install these trac bars on your truck

may either wanna look at lakewood's trac bar bars, or since your dropped i'd even consider ladder bars, a pinion snubber, or maybe a custom 4 link...
