Just a small update. Got some outrigger mounts from ruffstuff. Been wanting to redo my front rear shackle mounts for a while now so last week i installed the mounts and gave the shackles a better angle while i was at it.

It did lower the front alittle, but the ride is alot better.

What steering shaft is that?

New shackle setup looks good.

thanks, Its a 26" telescoping shaft with a flaming river 3/4 x3/4 DD joint on the cab side and a
1" DD x 11/16 36 spline for the toyota box that i used. Hope this helps. i can give the part # for the u-joints if u need them. For the Steering brace i used a steering shaft support and made my own mount.
