    Is there any 6" lift kit, that does not use garbage tie rod ends?

    I've used rancho, rough country, and zone on 1500 trucks, and the weak-link on these kits is the tie rod ends. ranch was the worse, and actually used a new inner rod too, which was total crap. 10k of road driving, noticeable play. I ended up shortening a stock tie rod, re-threading it, and...

    Opinion - 275-65-20 or 285-60-20 for stock wheels?

    Can’t decide. Was between nitto g2, toyo at3, Bridgestone revo3. Bridgestone are the lightest at 52 and 54 lbs. I don’t want to murder my ride or mpg. G2 I can get in a xl which is like 47 lbs. but it’s my least favorite tire from the bunch.
