Yeah I got the idler and pitman arm stuff from cognito and so far it's working great. I'm going to do the tie rods when the stockers go...

I too am looking for stronger parts, but for the following vehicle:

2008 chevy avalanche w/ 4" cst susp. lift

Anyone have any ideas. Moog is out. Cognito doesn't have anything yet. I need help! All I have so far is cst's upgraded ball joints and hotchkis sways.

Hey man, Cognito has all the stuff for your truck, the pitman/idler support, and a heavy duty tie rod setup. You do have to buy the pitman and idler arm separately, though.
