dixon brothers sells a shock hoop to be used with their kit. it needs to be welded on to the frame. hoops for the most part are custom made to each truck.

Re: Prerunner Enthusiast's Thread
dixon is apparently impossible to get a hold of. guys with 4x4 ranger kits have been waiting over a year for axles that they have paid for, and he's just gone. if i didn't have the btf kit, i'd still go with his because it's cheaper and does the exact same thing as dixon's.

Re: Prerunner Enthusiast's Thread
the stuff he does in house (making the kits) is good work. the stuff he outsources (getting the axles made) is the issue. he claims the company he uses to get the axles made is the problem.

Re: Prerunner Enthusiast's Thread
look at it, buy the tube, then try to make something similar. no one really has plans for them.
