I think it's more important for you to get the correct ones. Which style do you want/need?

 

[alteredraptor]

well in all honesty, im good with what works, i would like to stick to the original style because i like how it works, but its a pain to adjust sometimes. im just trying to find a good replacement

Pay pal me $8 and ill ship them today. They are in great shape. And send me your address.
Use livexitxup@yahoo.com for paypal and address. Happy these are going to be used.

 

[alteredraptor]

payment and email has been sent, thanks!!

 

[alteredraptor]

parts came today and they be nice and shiny!! Thanks!!

No prob. From arizona so no rust. Going over them with a wire wheel didn't hurt though.

 

[alteredraptor]

that works, at least now I won't have to worry about them rusting and preventing me from adjusting them, thanks a lot!!

Anti-seize. Use it.

 

[alteredraptor]

In future some time you can separate the A arms and move to bump stop and get little more tension off the torsion. and use small gas torch it doesn't have to get glowing some heat just helps. An the reason they seize up is because that bolt gets stretched and the threads are stretched. I busted mine and the threads were actually spaced out more. And I used all threads with few lock washers and stuff and it came out cheap haha not the safest thing to do but gotta do what you gotta do. Impact or air tools helps allot just to even get it vibrate it. Glad u got it all fixed

I torched the last two sets I did. Just duct tape/zip tie plate something to absorb the impact of the nut side going into the floor of the pickup. (The first time I did it it put the dimple in the floor like someone else described.) Then I just torched the head of the bolt off and a little bang I was done. I did these to a truck I was swapping so I didn't care about the bolts though.
