okay so my buddy has an 07 CTD dually 6 speed crew cab
and he has bad axle wrapuke:
when he hits the sand he can hardly drive out of 1st gear or his whole truck will start hoppin arounduke:
he's looked at kits but doesn't want to spend $600+
so i told him i would help him out
first of all he was telling me that he had heard of bad things to come if you weld on the frame:eeek: anyone no anything about this? said something about the frame being heat treated or something:eeek:
secondly all the kits have one mount onthe front of the axle housing and no shackle on the frame side just a bushing like a ladder bar?
i was thinking about making two mounts top and bottomish/front on each side and possible a shackle? anyone have an first hand experience with this? and or pictures?:corn:
