Hello Stewart,

Did you ever get your OUO bars installed?
Hey Robin, good to see you posting brother.

I have not installed them. There's been a bit of a change of plans, really. I'm putting the bars on my sons F350. He has terrible axle wrap and needs them badly, plus, I'm gonna be selling my truck.

I have some changes coming that I'll keep the brotherhood informed about, but until things solidify and become reality, I'm gonna keep things under wraps.

1) It's good to be posting again.

2) Putting them on the truck that will be staying around certainly makes since, but I still want to know how the install goes.

3) Mums the word.

Glad everything is ok Peter. Im pretty sure i told you before that stacked blocks are a bad idea but you have to do what you have to do hahaha...

And no just using lift springs will not take care of axle wrap for anyone that wants to know. I have had a few lifted trucks and have helped friends build some nasty wheeling machines and the only way to get rid of wrap is 3 or 4 link set up or traction/ladder bars. And even with ladder bars if the are too short they wont help much.

Probably not. I'm asking too much for it.

The truck is in excellent mechanical condition and I know you can't add value to the truck because of upgrades, but I'm still gonna try and get a premium for it. I have to in order for my planned purchase to work out the way I want.

My truck is made of gold, doncha know!
