Re: Danforth Cross Member Install

That's just what I did on my install. In fact I would almost think I was looking at the one I did.

Has your customer had a chance to put any miles on?

Curious about his feedback on the front suspension.

Yes, with the new rack (3 turn) it drives great. I like it and he likes it which is the important parts. Thanks to the input of all the guys here that helped get it figured out I think this is the go to cross member for me in the future for AD trucks.

The truck with the Danforth front end and the 67-72 trailing arm rear makes it ride nice and handle like a newer truck similar to a 2000 up Silverado but smoother on the Interstate. I think with bags it should ride like a Cadillac

Turning radius is also very good
