Only thing I can really add is having the one tie rod so much further forward than the other causes odd behavior when steering. Ackerman gets more and more wonky the further it steers because of the angle between the tierod and steering arm.
Bent tie rods with better geometry is better than...
Mine are 1.75”x.120 DOM, around 40” long but I don’t recommend that 😂
2”x.250 is what we use on a ranger 1400 truck. Taco’d 1.75x.120 on the first real test but they’re around 60” long and a barrow spread because ranger. Bent a 2x250 wall as well in a rollover. Can’t believe the Heims and bolts...
Anything with 40s should have 40spline or larger axles.
Not all 35 spline axles are created equal either. With a healthy v8 even on 37s it wouldn’t be too hard to break a 35 spline. Driving style plays a major role.
A bypass will for sure be a better option from a strictly performance aspect. Nothing beats position sensitive valving. Only downfall is the rattles associated with a bypass.
I’ve used the full synthetic in race trucks, used the red bottle in prerunners, great success with both.
Still running heavy weight shock proof in my own though.
I don’t understand fireworks in general. Why does every desert trip have to have fireworks all night long? I feel like since Covid it’s gotten much worse.
