Thanks,
The brackets would be fairly easy to make if I only had a truck with dropped beams.

shipping would run his price up to the point were he wouldn't have as much of a bargain as you might think.

it calculated mine at $70 so thats $560 i can't clearly remeber the amount i paid summit but it was real close to the same.

summit price to my door is $581 so he is beating them by $20

I know on some parts you can only gt a warranty on them if you buy them from a seller approved thru the manufacturer. summit may be the better place to get them even if its an extra $50 or so.

I got mine from Total cost involved, it was a universal kit.
The front brackets are bolt on but the rear axle brackets are weld on.
Also check out the links I sent to td.

just to keep the thread on course here's a very sharp lowered bump.
i believe he is or at least was a member here and i'm thinking i remember seeing this truck on the bay.
so either he had it on there or he bought it there, but none the less its gorgeous. :drool:
