Got a website for them or a phone number? Maybe they are willing to make one for the 200 series

Shotts - you can get ~1.5" of clearance for free by removing that ridiculous looking vibration damper. I doubt it's doing your truck any good at this point and the 100 needs a diet with all the heavy iron you have on it.

One example of why the "bent arms" help:

The video shows how a straight arm would have been hit, bent, or hung on. Click the link:

John Shotts (shottscruisers) : photos : Wild West Off-Road 2nd Generation High-Clearance Lower Rear Control Arms

Stills from the video (though the video shows it better):

Approach. Look what the rear arm area is headed for:



Look where the ledge was going to hit. Yes, the lower arms. Good things I had the WWOR arms.
