Tried a small plastic pivot ball but it was still to big. Had to muscle it, never got it in, broke the flange.
What part of SoCal are you in?

Have you tried them with just the long spring for crawling?

Sry cheez, wasn't able to get to my rig yesterday to double check the shock situation for ya. Is that piece going to work proper for you?
Magic, are you changing a lot on your rig for trailing or just shocks and height adjustment?

I think it'll work fine, I'm just being meticulous trying to put something similar to stock in there.

I'm not sure of the length but I pulled up my order for them from RPP and it says KBess yeti black limiting strap 4 pack. I tried to open the link to them but the item is not available...

The new Monster X/Holmes combo was awesome. I need to go back down with the oil weight because its way too stiff right now. Forgot how much fun this rig is to drive, its been a few months!!

Unfortunately I didn't make it through a while pack. I noticed a bent rear Ti axle shaft while bench testing but couldn't let that stop me from getting it out. All in all it did ok. I'm going to wait until I change the shock oil to mess with the upper link locations. To me, it felt a bit more squirrelly the way its set up right now. Lost a screw for the rear sway bar as well, I forgot the loctite on those...

No leash for this rig, I drove it out and back to the truck like this.
