Do you have existing coils and shocks that are capable of a LA kit? Teraflex has an upgrade kit that includes everything needed except shocks and coils

Jackson I didn't realize you were in the buford area. I'm sure you've seen me around. Anyways, teraflex is a good place to start. Check rock krawler as well.

LOL, it must take a lot of time for the "RE is out of business" to hit the Alaska sites. I would go Teraflex of Full Traction. Both are active here, I think the FT is a bolt on kit, where the TF is a weld on. I am getting my TF 3" Long Arm installed on Monday.
