| Oh yes, that is much better...... Looks good. Do you just keep the stock radious arms on the top? or do you change them too.... | |

| I have seen a guy break one of the heim joints on that brand. He broke another one on the other side a couple of weeks later. The one I saw him break shouldn't have broke. It was a very easy hit from sliding down into a rut sideways. That is why I bought Highlifters. Maybe they are using higher quality heims now. If not, you better stock up. | |

| Does Highlifter make lower profile trailing arms like Zbroz, or are you referring to the radius rods? | |

I know they have change these things up since their introduction. The radius rod does not have a heim joint at the spindle anymore. Just at the frame. | |
