I don’t know if you know that they or most companies recommend putting never seize on the shock housing threads. I know you’ll probably set it at a certain ride height and be done but from what I’ve seen and read they do seize up overtime
Building one now with TCI been following your build for ideas and get an idea for the kit. I’ll be very disappointed if my kit fits poorly. I’m starting on it this week.
@@GreatLakesLogger Mine went in exceptionally well. Honestly one of the best if not the best fitting aftermarket parts I have ordered in a long time. I didn't have to screw with or modify anything what so ever. They did screw up a little but it didn't cost me anything. They sent me two sway bars and all the hardware no idea what the other bar fits. The second was they sent the wrong tie rod ends but they replaced them in about 4 days. All in all I will be going with them again if I do another one no questions.
@@a7m266d is there any way to leave it at pretty much stock ride height and still get an improved ride and handling? Did you run into issues with the steering shaft at all?
@@GreatLakesLogger Oh there is no way it's close to sock height its slammed, even when its hanging in the air I doubt the front end sags to even stock ride height haha. The steering shaft is easy just run the double knuckle like this fella did. I just clearance my frame to fit.
@@a7m266d gotcha. I'm not opposed to lowering it a little bit, but if it's that much, I probably won't be looking into it very hard. I would basically like to just update it, have a tubular subframe, and rack and pinion steering
TCI should really watch this dudes video
I am very surprised to see that lower control arm is in single shear. that front bolt should have a bracket outside the bushing.
You just convinced me NOT to buy a TCI front suspension!

True! These are actually plastic collars.

I don't think it's an Okiehomey thing to add R's to washer, Washington, etc. It's straight from Weirdoville, LOL.
Agreed
Sad welding in that him joint in bad workmanship
This looks like a very cheap Chinese parts kit
