Extreme or Mild Dropmember

[wwillmon]

Man I just need 3 trucks so I can do all 3, well really 4 now haha. How long until that new option is available?

And good to know about tire size, I wasn't sure if the air bag install limited that or not.

And one more question, can the tubular a-arms be upgraded later? Thinking about going ahead and ordering my front dropmember with all upgrades besides the a-arms and then ordering the arms later on, if possible.

Yes. Nate designed his suspension systems to work with the stock arms. You can always add the tubular arms later.

Ken-

I need to clarify this a little... the Extreme version Dropmember will work with factory uppers from 63-87 and factory lowers from 73-87 C10 only.

The Mild and Touring variations MUST be run with our tubular control arms.

This is news to me. Can you expand on why they won't work? I was under the assumption you were ok to run factory arms unless using coil-overs?

There is rack to bushing pivot tube clearance issues with the factory lowers on the Mild and Touring DMs. The bushing and stamped steel surrounding it will contact the rack housing on the driver side.
