Anyone know how much the 55-59 kit is going to cost. Can we just get the bolt in part and add our own control arms . Thanks for the help

Re: Porterbuilt

Contact dave for prices. He will give you a parts list of everything you need to get started. You may have to leave a message or email because from what I have experienced, they get pretty busy at times.

So far I have the the whole front sub assembly minus the upper-lower control arms (you have to use Porterbuilt arms), steering rack, sway bar, steering linkage and hoses. The work put into the dropmember is well worth the money and put together perfect.

Re: Porterbuilt

I was hoping I could just add diff control arms. I think there's a post on here that says there control arms are around 1200 bucks so I was trying to find a diff route to go. I've left several messages and contacted cop and another company that sells there product with no luck. I'm sure he will get back to me sooner or later.

Re: Porterbuilt

A lot of guys run Michigan Metal Works arms with the DM. Maybe an option? I think the issue with stock arms is the steering rack.

Re: Porterbuilt

We have been on the road the past two days. Back in the shop on Monday.

This kit is only compatible with our control arms, as they are specific length to keep the track width where it needs to be. We do offer some package pricing, and can break the kit up if needed to be purchased in phases.
