Howdy! Sorry I just had to say that! Can you give more info on the truck such as data plate on door with axel code ect... Engine front suspect type, as we don't get the brazillian mfg. Trucks here those will be important things to know, have you called pro comp? They are really helpful. If you get to Johannesburg stop in and say hi to Lou Van Booth for me please... I hope this can be of help hope to here some more on here soon too!
Jim

I am going to suggest that you post in the Australia chapter forum, as they also get the brazilian built trucks and have lots of experience with lifting and modifying them talk to Brian Chunder from Downunder he's the chapter leader and in sure he will help, cheers!
