    Hey Bama sorry I never got back. If its still relevant, I was real happy with the bracket lift for what it was. Stock IFS stuff's just too weak for 35s once you start beating on the rig but for day to day use and light wheeling it held up just fine. Major trimming would be required to fit 37s with the skyjacker lift and still be able to steer.

    Hey man I was wondering what you thought of that T422 skyjacker front bracket lift. I just put the tr60's springs on back and was waiting to see how it looked before deciding between BJS and the bracket lift. Are you happy with the bracket lift? I really would prefer to have my cv's stay in tact and maintain good wheel travel. Anyways If you don't mind I would appreciate it. I want to get it ordered ASAP. Oh and what size tires do you run on that lift. I was thinking 35's, maybe 37's even for my runner. Thanks -Derick

    my buddy has a tube bender and a welder so he did the fabbing. the measurements were all done by eye and the fishmouthing was done using some online tool that could print a perfect stencil to cut by. The tubing was .125" wall 2" (pretty sure) HREW.

    Where did you get your bumper on the front? I am looking at designs and gonna build my own. Do you have some specs on it like measurements and what size tubing was used?

    love the lockrite. the two main negatives ive hear from people (the ratcheting noise and the unpredictable handling) are probably both initial impressions. you get used to driving with it and the noise it makes is unintrusive to the point where i actually have to try and listen for it to actually hear it. overall ,two thumbs up
