Great write up,

Note you will only have trouble with the air sensor, if you put wider than 12.5 on stock rims. i.e. 37 x 13.5 x 17 Toyo MT's

Second if you do break the sensor you can manually move each arm into the same position and the air bags will refill. So you can get home on a broken sensor connector rod.

Glad to see everyone going with the bigger tires.

yes, very good write up. much better than my ghetto ms paint job. i do need to flip my panhead and bolt like you did, after speaking with doc miles.
so when are you getting the tires? and dont forget to post pics of the tires on your rig!

because it's harder to do, and, the arms broke because they didn't have this fix. this fix will help prevent the arm from breaking.

has anyone run 37x13.5s after doing this mod or similar and not had probs w/ the air sensor?

well, wasn't it that when off-roading, the tire would compress in he wheel well, hit the outer edge of the arm, puting leverage on the linkage and snapping it between the two anchor points, thus, in the middle?

well, thats my guess?
