good looking out - tomp - i actually did them about2 months before the tires....the rig started swaying off....lots of play. The idle and ppitman were shot......i replaced them and added the cognito kit.....sweet mod!!!!!

the steering stabilizer really makes the steering smooth and tight also.

Only 1 other thing you need to do there my friend. Extend your bump stops down to where they touch the lower control arm +1/4" like the were before you cranked your TBs. There should be enough space on top of the stud to add in a spacer there.

Okay! Now you got me......please explain more.....pics too, if you got any.

I think I have an idea of what where talking about - is this to prevent bottoming out?

It will help the following:
-Nose dive when braking
-hard shock bottoming out
-lean in turns or cornering

How much does it cost to do this bump stop? I just replaced my front shocks with Bilstein and the thing rides like a boat now, the place who installed them had no idea what the bump stop is. Can anyone recommend a shop in OC, CA that can do this work?
