your center link bracket

[TRUBBS]

Tony, do you think you'll ever be making these for trucks with 4" Tuff Country lifts?

I will look at my old dirty hooker and see what i can come up with. keep on me about it.. lol

I need one for my 4" tough country to!!

Perhaps it has been discussed in another thread, but I'm wondering if the pitman/idler braces are still recommended while using the brace, tony. It may be a stupid question, but my understanding is the braces aren't really needed with a straight center-link, not having the roll issues that a stock center-link without the brace has. Help my ignorance.

The idler arm bracket suport and stronger idler arm pivot are recomended but the cognito kit wont work with the brace.

I was wondering how long the hard plastic last on the brace, truck is daily driven seems to be wearing ok

 

[red1977]

I daily drive mine when I'm at work and home. At work it on oilfield roads. Seams to be holding up fine.

 

[dankeith1975250]

Ok kewl, ive only had mine on for a bit.

 

[Tony Burkhard]

It depends if the front diff is polished before installing brace.

Ok i remive brace and polished diff, if plastic piece still wears do u sell new ones tony?

I polished my diff and my brace did still 'wear in' to the plastic but seems to have stopped. My brace rubbed hard against the diff at first so I'm sure it had to get seated a little bit. Hasn't worn any farther since.

yes we do.

Does this effect the turning radius? By polishing you guys are just making sure it is smooth?

 

[dankeith1975250]

Does not limit turning radius, and the front diff has a lip on it that u should take a grinder and polish off or plastic piece wears off really quick

 

[DaveB]

Sounds great! I like the idea of this much better over the straight centerlink. I think this winter the Cognito braces will come off and I'll put this on.

Is it ok to drive around with it on a leveled truck, but then lowering the front end when I get to the track?

 

[dankeith1975250]

Yeap i have my torsion bars (stock keyes) cranked on my daily driven truck then lower the truck down to sled pull works great u could do the same thing at the strip
