Looks damn good, hope the ride is good. I have a 6" Fabtech on my truck and it rides great.

hey Jason just installed my 7” lift and my truck feels the same way. Did you ever find a solution?? . I thought maybe its abit stiffer from the added u-joint.

You have to adjust the steering shaft at the hiem joint. The joint pushes down into the hiem joint after installation. Just needs to move up a bit and make sure the joint is turned inline with the shaft. Hope this helps.

Yes, I had to make sure the the face of the bung and the middle of the hiem joint is not less than 1-3/4". I actually gave it an extra turn. Solved the binding in the steering
