I had clamps on mine and I hated the way it rode. At first I thought it wasn't that bad but it got a little on my nerves when I drove it

Brutal, did you investigate the assassin bars or just skip over them? $339 doesn't sound outlandish if you try leaf spring clamps and aren't satisfied.

ve been emailing sd the past 20 mins. great customer service and quick reply. they sent some pics of the silverado set not just ones posted on site. looks great. i love the adjustably on the front part maybe that will help with people who don't have flip kits and don't have the perfect angle on the bar

I looked at them but think i'm going to try the clamps first. I'd rather try to fix this problem the cheap way. I don't have wheel spin. Now once i install some gears that may change, so i'd like to tackle this one problem at a time.

What gears do you have? Ive got 3.73 which could be why it does spin compared to 3.42.
I would try the clamps and if it doesnt work, o wll $20 wasted and if it does work $350 saved

X2's. Bell Tech has a pinion alignment kit. It's not expensive, and it does the job. I have one on The Chariot, and no vibrations at all.
