To those with the bds

Post by bubaloo1983 »

hey guys with the bds, can you do me a big favour? i need to know how long the sway bar drop brackets are on your trucks. is it 5 like i would think? or something different?

im makinga skid for the bds that goes under the sway bar and covers up the front end better but i need to know how long those brackets are :)

thanks

Justin:

the drop brackets are 4 1/2"

let me know what you come up with. my buddy and i have been throwing ideas around about a front skid that would wrap under that sway bar to protect (and keep more mud out of) the front end better.
just remember who got you that critical dimension :wink:

good luck on it!
