Will post pics shortly, got the arms, all the hardware, bushings, etc.

There are no side tie in brackets for the crossmember in the box though. The hardware for them is there, but not the actual brackets.

I'll send Dave an email in the morning.

Aside from the missing brackets the kit is very nice. Good looking welds, beefy, hardware looks to be great quality and packaged nicely.

I am confused as well. I ordered 11/04/2016

Never received shipping notification for the arms. I have received the center section.

I am not home right now, but as of yesterday I had received anything else.

Dave has been good in responding to my emails. He just called me this morning about the side tie in brackets that were missing in my kit. Going to have them shipped out for me.

Installed the control arms today. It was a little tough getting the upper control arm bushing out of the drivers side axle side. Luckily I followed some advice about freezing the new joint over night and it was pretty easy to press in. The arms are about as short as they can be and the tire is centered in the wheel well. It rides so nice especially compared to non adjustable RE short arms on 5 inches of lift. Some pics. Yes, i know I didnt get the front frame rail bolt in yet cause I have frame stiffeners and ran out of time to get that done. Probably tomorrow after the alignment.
