Superlift installed, couple of questions.
Finally got time to install, i was wondering about the cv shaft where it meets the knuckel, is it really supposed to be exposed like that? I can look right at the wheel bearing. Also i noticed a couple of new rattles, i think it might be those ****ty sway bar links, anyone make their own or buy others somewhere? 4x4 works perfect and no rubbing at all anywhere, it feels like the steering is a little looser but im guessing this is normal with bigger tires? Anyways thanks for any responses.

Yea there is no shaft extension, i think it just feels different with bigger tires and all, the alignment isnt even off, seems like it was bwfore i installed it, im still gonna get it checked though. Also what size is the tbar bracket cover bolts? So i can just take the sway bar links off? Any negative effects?

I noticed to the driverside rear sits .25" higher then the passenger side? From the top of the tire its 8" to the bottom of the flare, does this sound right? Im wanting to know how else i can raise it another inch or so and crank my tbars again.

Here is the thread for making your own end links. I made mine the same way and they work great and are nice and quiet.

For the rear you could swap in Explorer leafs which would lift you another 2". I believe any leafs from a 2001 and older are what you would be looking for. They are a direct bolt in.
You could also look into 63" Chevy springs but that involves moving the front spring hanger.

If i got expo leafs would i still use the add a leaf or shackels i have? Thanks for the link, i took the sway bar links out yesterday and it seem like it rides a heck of alot better lol, i dont know why but i like it. I may just take the whole thing off. Can you put 2 add a leaf on each side? I think my u bolts are long enough, and fords ride like **** anyway so im not worried about ride quality, i cant tell if its any stiffer the way it is now!
