    X2 ..what Gizmo says.

    If you have lifted already..and are happy with the pinion angle/spline depth..
    ...and axle is squeared up and reasonably centered...

    ...then youre fine simply beefing up the OEM links.

    My driver's side link is severely bent...we're talking politician bent here. I'll post a photo later. Passenger side might be ok to straighten, but I'm thinking I'll just replace them with HD ones.

    Looking at the indy4x links you all have posted already, which kit do I choose for the VX? The 2 piece trooper one?

    If any Denver peeps have any time coming up some weekend maybe you would be up for helping with the install for some beer and pizza?

    Edit: here's a pic of the bad one... it's bent in both the vertical and horizontal plane.

    I'd be up for a wrenching day. I just sent StinkyFab an email question about their links. Haven't decided which to go with yet, Indy or Stinky. Either way though I'd be up for helping out. I'm not in much of a hurry to do mine 'cause it seems to be driving just fine. I do need to replace my wheel bearings one of these days though too.
    BTW StinkFab does list the same lower links for the Trooper and VX as the same part and yes just the two piece lower links should suffice.
    There's no 'I' in denial.
