The suspension is basically half ton now, the only difference is the upper control arms, the studs that go through the cross shaft are much larger than 1/2 ton ones, so I stayed with the 3/4 ton arms and changed ball joints to half ton, which bolted directly in place of the 3/4 ton ones. Just trying to figure out how to make it drive a bit better, it is okay as is, but could stand improvement.
I just wanted to see the upper a-arms and the tie rods.
There has been a rash of people installing the inner tie rods and center link incorrectly. I'm just trying to see what's causing the bumpsteer issues.
