What all gaskets came in that kit? I think I spent about $4 bucks for all of the gaskets I used for my system.

I also just ordered a transfer case linkage bushing kit to eliminate a rattling under the floor at idle.



Apparently these stock bushings go bad and it makes this awful loose metal screw sound.

I just installed the new bushing kit for the 4x4 shifter, no more wobbling!

Old one:

Subbed. Super informative stuff. Awesome build too. I own a limited the same color, not nearly as nice. Gives me a lot of motivation. Keep it up.

I'm confused by this. How much was it? Why is it trying to be a double sheer? And is that the stock size bolts?

It's a 16-pound solid piece of steel. Definitely an upgrade from what I've got.

why the hell is the bend there at the top, and why would they put the adjuster at the bottom where it can get hammered by rocks?

Just a guess, but perhaps that bend at the top is prevent clashing with the Rough Country control arm system?:



And as far as it getting hammered by rocks... seems like that probably wouldn't phase it, considering right underneath is solid steel. I think the curve upwards would leave any rocks hitting your axle tubes instead.

$160 shipped without the bracket. I already have the bracket from my adjustable RC track bar, and it's the same one.
