Any squat is too much squat, IMO. I know it's not actually the look you're going for but I absolutely HATE squatted trucks. looks like you can only afford half a lift kit.
It was a full package but the keys are cranked past level and honestly I kinda like the partial squat, not that crap where people leave it stock in the rear and raise the front 4 inches

That's how they're designed, if they're angled up or down the tension or leverage (anti-sway) would be less. They work better parallel. If you look at the shape of them you can see they are designed to be flat and will resist side to side force better oriented that way. My rear was way off being lowered 3-4". The DJM endlinks made a difference I could feel. Once you get everything dialed in and it all works together right, it's amazing how these big rigs handle. Swaybars and endlinks are just part of the equation but I feel they're pretty important.
Found the DJM's on Norcal SS website and they are $85.

I like the look of squatted trucks, but personally wouldn't own one.
Love lowriders on 14" Dayton spokes and hydros but would never own one.
Like the look of cafe racer bikes but wouldn't own one.
Exc.
All of these serve no propose with thier style but they're a style and I can respect that if* done right
That's :2cents:

Was watching a boring movie today in psychology so decided to make a check list of stuff to get done before me and friends go to the beach for a week on vacation. Tell me what you guys think and if I should add something.

Don't do the alignment until you've done all the work in your front end (replace UCAs and bushings and etc) unless you go somewhere that gives you a "lifetime" alignment, where you can have it repeated at any time without cost.

unless its bad, then I would tell you to get it done before the beach, or you'll eat up your tires.

The camber is really what I want fixed. I got negative camber on the drivers side and positive on the passengers side. I know I can fix the camber in my driveway but when reading about it I heard it messes up alignment and I'm not trying to mess with that. The guy who does all the work on my truck that's out of my league would do it for cheap for me
