Oh he will definetely tell you theyre better. We have talked about the djm arms before

Plus i pull djm and inez off arms local trucks all the time. Poor design

Those are also affecting your caster and steering. Twisted arm kit is the way to go for sure. If i was going any lower id do it. But im over being that low now. Especially here in califirnia the roads arent low friendly

Mississippi roads are also garbage. People see my truck and instantly think it probably rises terrible. The ones who actually get to ride in it can’t believe how good it rides, but I tell all that ask. You get what you pay for. I could be on full air for what I have tied up in my drop, but it rides amazing. It’s a long way from cut coils and shackle/hanger combos that everyone did when we were teenagers.

Correct. You did good for sure. But your caster is still affected pretty greatly. Thats all im saying. If it works for you then perfect. But most people dont want to tub and do all that work. Just like me

Im going to be installing my twisted coilover kit in place of the droo strut. And im orfering the new twisted upper arm (which moves the wheels forward and corrects some caster) im also lowering it another half inch.

The wheel not being centered bugs me on mine.

Jumping in on this, I have the drop spindles for a 2"ish front drop and my wheels have moved back quite a bit compared to stock and I rub because of it. Will the Twisted upper control arms take care of this issue and center the wheel?

Its stock. I had an Inez arm in there but it moved the wheel even farther back. I put the stock arm back on and added the spindle. Closer to center by a little bit but the above is what I have with just the spindle.

Very strange. The twisted upper arm will help correct that

Truck is stock height but rear blocks removed was wondering how low the front drops by moving the struts to the bottom of the control arm

Sounds like I'll be putting in an order soon then. When they did the alignment post spindle install the mechanic said that the upper arm was maxed out in terms of centering and showed me where the arm had been shifted. Forgive any terminology inaccuracies.

I'm not really concerned about the load on the bolts I have some fairly heavy duty ones I can use and i see heavy trucks with air ride suspension using bolts for the pivot

Puts more stress on the strut. And itl shove your wheel back far. I fix that all the time for people that want to be cheap
