Nice snorkel. Is it the Southdown?

I tried to bug Will whenche sent me non-AEL parts when I clearly stated AEL. In the end I chose to preserve my sanity and give up than to keep after him.
He better make this right. Too expensive.

Good luck with that. Oh, and when he screws you don't even think about calling him out on that "other" forum. LOL

Finally got my bushings in and installed.

There is more roll in turns, but nothing too bad. It's a truck not a sports car after all.
Pretty happy with the result.

I thought they were for the frame side. Didn't figure radius arm twist would be a source of binding. Neat.

Need something from Will? Spam the snot out of him until he responds. "I will fix it immediately... not sure how that got through the cracks!" -Will

Yep, they bind at the axle. Normal bushings don't have enough give to let the arms twist.

Too funny about Will. Hopefully he takes care of you.

Raining now but still getting work done. Stripped and finished more area. Made custom side trim strips to cover holes.
