Ya, I did use their idler arm brace. Hard to say if it was worth it or not. I didn't have any idler arm problems, but if I were to do it over again, I'd consider the Total Chaos overbuilt part, depending on how much it cost.

The Downey shock hoops were one part that was VERY easy to install and worked great! Simple bolt on, no welding, using an already existing hole on the frame and the upper bumpstop mount. They worked great and with those, the entire long A-arm kit was a bolt off, bolt on project that I was able to do by myself. The only non-bolting part was having to cut off the stock shock mount with a grinder. Very easy.

If I was rich, I'd probably have two trucks. My SAS and a Total Chaos Long A-arm to play with on the dunes and dirt roads. Actually, make that three....and a Land Cruiser 80. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
