I recently installed the HRG 2" Ultimate Lift Kit. In this video I reinforce the rear trailing arms that I had to cut to make the kit fit.

When you welded the first piece, you placed the grounding of the welding machine on the screw that holds the wheel. This causes the current to pass through the ball bearings of the drive axle, damaging it. You should always place the ground collection as close as possible to the area to be welded.
Thanks for the tip!
Starting with, you should never cut any metal that is under tension at a right or 90° angle. to avoid this you can drill a 3/8 or 1/2 inch hole and then make the cuts to meet where you drilled the hole. Even so, if the material is very thin, also add the reinforcement that you made.
did a 3" lift with no drop spacers. i notice my front coils getting sandwiched between the body and spindle under full droop. this limits my droop in the front to the equivalent of a 2"lift and makes noise when front suspension drops. i never noticed an issue with the rear other than the control arm bushing completely ripping out. ill have to check this out the next time i flex my suspension.
buddy.How u doing?, like it- top video-work~💥
The question is....Why did I not have to cut mine with a 2.5 inch spacer and you did?
Possibly because my coil overs were not oem? I’m not sure.
@@joelatwar Just find that a bit odd, my oem and non stock coils all cleared.
