Balljoint Kit

Long story short I bought a used 4" Superlift Drop Bracket Kit for 100$, and I'm ordering new shocks, balljoints, tie rods, idler, and pitman arms...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TOYOT...Q5fAccessories

Found this kit, I've got an '86 Truck this is all going on, what I need to know is even though the Idler arm is a bigger Idler arm then the current one, everything else will bolt up correct? As in, the rest of the stuff will work, since I'm replacing everything. Anyone know? Superbleeder? Jay? Anyone? Thanks

Yeah, its all the same. But, I read on here that the thicker idler arms are differ slightly in lenght.. Im not sure this is true, but.... I would try it.

The Body Lift stays, Its stronger then this tin foil bracket lift anyways, but the bracket lift was cheap.. I'll be running

-5.29 Gears
-F/R Locked
-36x13.50 IROK Bias Ply's



I just need to find the tires cheap, and buy a front locker now.

Hokay, I just compaired my brand new (used) 91 idler (thin style) with my spare 93 idler (thick style).

The arms are the same length. Do it!!

I've had no problems at all with mine, and I like the fact that they're all greasable

You'll be amazed how much you'll learn when you do this. After you do it once you can change TRE's on your lunch break while eating a sandwich.

If you have the right tools and some PB Blaster it's a pretty easy job.

Not me man, a couple tokes and a night in the shop with my truck and the stereo up is like heaven. Hahaha, that sounded a little gay.

Anyways, I've got beer, pizza, and four people helping me so this shouldn't take too long to get done, I've also got to re-gear my rear diff while this is all going on too. I've already started sprayin' PB blaster on everything, I hope with this 4" more of lift and 36's I wont need a sway bar.. Cause I ain't got one.

oh I love nothing more than passing time wrenching on my truck, but I'd rather be upgrading or "customizing" instead of repairing it's a toss between the two with my current motor rebuild, lol. it BADLY needed it, so it's kinda like a repair, but at the same time I'm not only making it look better than brand new, but hoping the motor up a little too
