Nice work! I have been waiting for quite a while to see what you would do on those upper a-arms. Do you know how much angle you moved the ball joint? Or if not what was the measurement?

I like your idea on routing the air lines to the front end. Very clean.

Did you use 3800 bags on the front? If so how big around did you make your buckets, and how deep did you make them as well? Did this give you enough lift?

Arms look good. Have you got it together & air up front end yet to see how much it affected the lift? I've cupped & stepped the lower arms before on a 65 c10, but I idn't need to pie cut the upper arms.

If I recall correctly he is running dominator 2600's all the way around.

thanks for the props on the work! i finally decided to just go for it i guess lol.

I ended up taking 12.5 degrees out of them, they were at 21 degrees when the arm was at 0.

i started not to plate them cuz i liked the way the looked but i figured if im gonna second guess it, then i might as well do it just to cover my butt later on. i havent got it all back togather yet, just the passenger side so far. the drivers side just needs put togather. then the front will be mostly done.

thanks man i appreciatte it! yeah its been togather for a while with the stepped arms, but i had to tare it back down to center the bags up in the lower cups. (they were rubbing on the back side). and i had to pie cut those uppers as well and put the calipers back on and redo the air lines.

It gets alright lift for me, it takes bout 135-140psi to get it plum up past the fenders. i just dont like how the arms hang lower than normal. it just looks funny from the front this way.

yessir! you are right! Dominator 2600 on every corner of the truck.

they seem like they hold up just fine in front.

Had to hollow out the arms and ended up putting cups in to gain a little lift.
