Using the oem clamps works out really well, I don't have to worry about the bar becoming totally loose. I have bent the oem ones in the past.
 
Rear lower chromoly links.

I have bent the oem ones too.. adding the angle iron helps, but this is better.

Also the @eimkeith reinforcement is a must or the mounts would be trashed.
 
Are these new aluminum tie rod /drag link stronger the there stock counter parts ?
 
Next I need more engine power.
Turbo, supercharger, ls, diesel, 2uz, marvel mystery oil?

Going up passes has been super slow

Going to do a compression check, see where this motor is at.

Also 37s.

They are stronger in they they can take a hit and bend back by them selves into place. Hood demonstration in the video.

 
What size chromoly are the lower control arms made of ?

I like that you made them the same size as the OEM ones, that way if you do bend one a stock replacement will get you down the trail.

It relocates the oil filter so it faces down and does not empty its oil while sitting.

Also let's you run big ford or toyota filters.

Same length you mean? That’s because OEM length already pushes a 35” tire into the rear of the wheel well, making them longer will only make that issue worse.

Doesn’t matter how much you lift it. If the tire goes in the wheel well, link length matters. If you’re just mall crawling you can benefit from longer links, but if you’re stuffing tires, going to be problematic at some point.
