Whether you're tackling extreme off-road terrain or maintaining smooth highway manners, this kit delivers the perfect balance of strength, stability, and adjustability.
Key Features and Benefits
- Heavy-duty DOM tubing construction – Built from 5/16” wall DOM tubing, these control arms and track bar provide maximum durability and strength, far surpassing factory and aftermarket alternatives.
- Johnny Joints for maximum flexibility – Equipped with Johnny Joints at both ends, these components allow unparalleled articulation, reducing binding and improving off-road performance.
- Left- and right-hand threaded adjustability – All components are left- and right-hand threaded, allowing for on-vehicle adjustments to fine-tune suspension geometry and alignment without removal.
- Fully adjustable for lifted vehicles – Designed to accommodate 0 to 6 inches of lift, allowing for precise axle centering and pinion angle adjustments. For lifts beyond 6 inches, contact us for custom solutions.
Two-Stage Powder Coating for Maximum Protection
All components undergo a two-stage powder coating process for long-lasting durability and corrosion resistance. A zinc primer base coat prevents rust and enhances longevity, followed by a durable top coat available in 10 custom colors for added protection and personalization.
