PSA: WELD WELD WELD
I have been procrastinating about welding my perches since I dropped my truck, well today my factory perches bent upwards, and I bent the shit outta my McGs under axle perches. Thank fully I was with Lee and Angie, and very close to alternative koncepts. Lee stayed with me to make sure all was good, and Tim let me fix it there. He also welded them in the way it should have been. Tell me again a 4.7 is nutless...

I found these a little pricey but I have no problems with rubbing or anything in the rear

My tires only rub in the front, the reason I asked about leafs cause mine are flat.
