I've seen polls for who's had steering rack issues... But who's lifted there 2nd gen Tunny 3" in the front and 1"+ in the rear and had no problems (steering rack or CV issues) for 50,000 or more miles?

I can finally post to this thread I have put more 50k on my truck since installing my 3/1 Radflo kit and experienced no issues in that time. It runs, drives, and handles just like it did five years ago before I leveled it.

Here’s to the next 50k
