*** Vehicles with AutoTrac require replacement Front Driveshaft - See Related Products below.
*** U-Bolts in kit will NOT fit Dually trucks - Custom U-Bolts required.
*** Trucks with 2 piece rear driveshaft will require a custom made replacement driveshaft, I piece driveshaft will work with part# 3223 kit. The front differential assembly is also lowered to keep CV axle angles in check. This is accomplished by using two, one-piece tubular cross members that span from frame rail-to-frame rail. Superlift#39s new control arm brackets connect to these cross-members along with "kicker" braces to form an exceptionally strong assembly. Steering linkage geometry is addressed by relocating the factory centerlink, which keeps the tie rods in phase with the lower control arms. Two greasable stabilizing links regulate centerlink movement and reduce the load and stress transmitted to the pitman and idler arms.
