michigan metal works....porterbuilt.....sell and make you anything you could need. both very badass. theres a guy on here named sick 82 . hes the man to talk too. the reason i say that is because he has one of the sickest dmax equipped dually laid out on 24s. and builds wicked trucks all the time. if you have a facebook, his name is severed josh. hes from new mexico. hope this helps. he will guide you right along.

Let 25lbs of air out of the front tires and you should be good.

are you bagged with stock arms? How did you go about mounting the lower plates to the cast arms?

I have DJM arms that I will be cutting and plating (when the time comes) for the front of my '02.

I havent put bags on yet its just got a set of drop spindles on it and i took the torsion bars off, still need another 3inches. Do i need to go with uppers and lowers for it to lay out? And what do i do about tierod and steering link?

I have nothing installed on mine just yet, still buying all the parts to do it all at once.

What is it holding it up right now?

You'll probably have to notch the frame for the linkages to clear.

I have DJM uppers and lowers and I will be plating the lowers after i figure out my bag placement.


Post up some pictures......from underneath and around the front suspension if you can

Upper Ball joints are binding up so i guess thats whats holding it up from laying, will post up pic soon. Have u modified your tierods/link?

I have not modified anything yet, my truck is sitting stock ....I am still collecting parts and doing research.

If your upper bj is binding then Im sure a set of arms would help with that issue, but Im pretty sure if your using DJM uppers you have to use there lowers as well.
