He runs the Cognito tierods, give Justin (or Chad) a call at Cognito 866-426-4648 and tell him what you want. http://www.cognitomotorsports.com/99...ie_rod_kit.htm
Look at the comparison pictures and you can definitely tell the Cognito tierods are way beefier than the twigs GM uses

BTW - Where are the new pics

Thanks, I'll give Justin a shout tomm. about them, they are 5 times the size of the stockers.

It was raining all day and night. I'm gonna go give it a bath and snap some pics. Haven't had a chance to snap some good night shots.

I think it looks awesome. Be careful with the new keys though, might give you some crazy CV angles since the diff isn't dropped a full 6". I saw a RCD on a Tahoe here in town cranked to hell and the cv's on that looked ready to explode

Mine are still as level as they can be. One thing that bothers me is the new keys seem to be a lil crooked and when I tried to really crank them up just to see how much I could get out of them, it started tweaking the cross member brace and it wouldn't go up any higher. So I just set it to where there is just barely a 1" rake rear to front and the ride is still fantastic. I was kind of wanting the front to ride a tad taller than the rear. I'm going to take them back out one night next week and reinstall them and see what that does.

Here is one I snapped today. The keys really brought the front up.
