Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
Details:
Dropmember front and Rear systems for 47-55 First Series. We are currently prototyping the Extreme Front and Rear with Air and a coil-over version as well. Hoping the trailing arms will work on both versions out back.... not quite there yet. Nate

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
I don't know zoomin or bruce bruce and my impression may be incorrect, but from what i have seen them post in this and other related threads it is apparent they are very classy individuals. I would like to thank them for contributing so much to this discussion.

We all know you are not satisfied with the results you got from your Porterbuilt experience. We also think its wonderful that you are now pleased with your recent purchase. We get it! If you continue to try to create controversy on the topic, your not going to be pleased with the results.

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
I feel that Nacho said it best when he told Ramseys to... "Take it Easy"!
Let's do our best to keep the thread on topic. We ALL know the underlying sentiments, but let's just move on. If it is not a comment relative to the discussion don't bother posting it. I am all game for well intended humor and even appreciate it in most instances. With that said... Zoomin and Bruce Bruce, I am pretty disappointed that you chose a "cheese slicer" (which I am pretty confident that the image used was an egg slicer) and then the industrial tomato slicer????? Come on guys, everybody knows it is patterned off a "Dough Blender". Innovation at its finest.

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
I feel like we are on our way to another locked thread here. I think if you have an opinion on a product and would like to voice it then thats fine. But lets not stoop to the level of bashing each other for ones opinion. Bruce Bruce wasn't happy with his dropmember so he went a different route, its his truck and his money so he can do what he wants. Me personally; I am extremely excited to get my dropmembers in and have been and will be a proud supporter of Porterbuilt products. At the end of the day we all have our opinions but we can all still be friends!

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
Will the DM-DB4 come with a soft grip handle for easy install?

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
Never did I think I would see debate about a Porterbuilt DM and cheese/dough when I signed up here lol
Since the question was asked... I like the DM because of the improvements in ride quality, performance and ease of installation. As an added bonus you get the coolest stance on the market imo! If installed correctly, even with an LS swap, this thing is a cinch for any novice to install! I'm clear proof of that. It has altered the way I look at life!! *** Now Amazon thinks I'm in the market for a new cheese slicer... ***
