cool man thanks. i use them all the time at work, or they made out of aluminum or steel? i don't know if there is a difference seeing as how you are using them on steel when i always use them on aluminum at work. my boss told me today that if i wanted a set made he would hook me up with our machinist, but they will be out of aluminum.

The ones I have are case hardened tool steel. I doubt aluminum ones would stand up to what I do. I often dimple 1/8" plate, and push over 20 tons onto them.

Ya I did.


Control arms are finished. Second shot are some adapter bolts I made to bolt to the stock frame. Last is a mock up shot.

I fiddled with wiring and plumbing today while Drew was clearancing the frame on the D50 for the control arms. Got a Stinger 4GA - (2)8GA fused distribution block to split the power between the compressors. Running two relays, very overkill, but very symmetrical. Wiring is just mock up so far, I am waiting on some Techflex to finish it off.

Looks good, why so big on the wiring? I know you said overkill, but is that just what you had at the shop or is that what you usually run? I know you will never be over exerting the wires capabilities. therefore no blown fuses or breakers(whichever you are running).
