I took a gander at it at SEMA. Not a bad looking kit. If I remeber right (and someone please correct me, I have a bad memory), max tire was 35". They used a weird comtraption of a linkage system for the torsion bar. First thoughts are more moving parts with high torque pivot points = failures. I think they are slowly come out with this system for the 1500 chevy but I have yet to hear any feedback on it. They also leave the front diff at OE position and use new half shafts that are high angled. I am interested to hear feedback on this, usually you get some vibrations from high angled slip half shafts. Great for offroad, but annoying for the long haul.
Did anyone see what they did with the rear? Shackles, leafs, add-a-leaf. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
The one I saw today, which as the one they trailered to SEMA had Mickey Thompson 37s on stock rims, yes the front linkage system was a very intresting setup, we ran down the street in it and I didnt really notice any vibration, but then again I wasn't in it that long. In the rear they had a new set of leafs and drop down shackles. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

If it comes with new leafs and shackles (I do not understand why both), right there is 2 hours of install unless you have a NASCAR pit crew out there. Did he have an explantion for both? Rule of thumb is one or the other, never both.
