Still have my original set.

They were plastic dipped forever. Going to start stripping them down and going to polish them they might got back in the truck one day

My original set of PY0s still has their Toyo Proxes on them from the BBT racing days, bolted to the half-ton chassis in the garage. (Yes, I converted it to 8-lug)

Some one was asking me about the tapper on the 1500 stuff Vs the 2500 stuff. Not sure if you documented it But IIRC the 2500 knuckles bolted on but the tapper was cut deeper on the 2500 knuckles so you had to put a washer under the castle nut so the threads don't bottom out on the ball joints. And I think you just swap the 2500 outer Tie rods over.

I found tapered adapters for the 2500 upper ball joint size difference. Worked like a charm.
Lower ball joint was same diameter.
I also found that early 99-00 2500 knuckles had a smaller diameter 1500-size tie rod hole.
