    Grif,

    Personally I'm glad you got the VX and are now giving it the TLC that it deserves.

    If anyone continues to give you grief, just turn it around into a big joke. If you ever get bored, search on 'offset from hell'. You'll see what I mean.

    One caution tho. Many members with a 3" lift have experienced CV boot failures. Keep a close eye on them. DO NOT let them run dry. If you ever get to the point of a permanent fix, lemme know. I can help hook you up with diff drop brackets.

    Really? It is going into the shop for that very reason. (amoung others) What is your permanent fix? Mebbe I can get the brackets before the shop orders thier parts.

    Grif,

    Sounds like you have that piece of junk up and running pretty darn well.

    Most of the questionable VX's out there are real sturdy and just need a little TLC to get them back into primo shape.

    Good job and post some pic's of that bad boy soooooon.

    Grif,

    Here's a thread on the subject:

    http://www.vehicross.info/forums/sho...light=cv+boots

    I probably won't be able to help you out for a while. I've only got 2 sets & I'm waiting on both to be returned for modification.

    There's contact info for Darlington in the thread. He can prolly help you out quicker than anyone.

    The only difference between what Darlington sells & I have is that Darlington does a 1.5 inch drop & I have a 2 inch drop.

    Don't forget to visit the How2 section to read up on the install procedures. You may want to print a copy for the shop if you're paying someone else to do the work. I'll PM you my cell number in case you need to discuss.

    BTW, the above thread also lists Tone as a source for the diff drop brackets. He passed away a few months ago so is not an available source.
