Fab tech

Hey bud I had some custom made for my truck with the high end greasable hines fitting .
The pivot ponits are welded to the frame and axle tube if you look at race trucks they are welded not bolted on the U bolt can spin on the axle so what good are they but the store pre fab ones look cool but you can get more for your money have a off road fab shop (Weld Shop) make you a set my cost me $435.00 Installed, Big plus they are custom made for your truck.
