A/S = ackerman steering correct?
Do you have an exampple of a slider style mount? I have never seen one.
The DOM I have is rather stout but, I am ordering some more of different sizes, square and rectangular. All thick wall.
I'm with you, watts all the way.
I'm going to be getting in touch with Fays2 for some components. I dont have much room and am more than likely going to have to make one to fit.
Thanks Bryce, I appreciate it very much.

A/S is anti-squat. I think TCI has the slider front mount. The longer the T/A the higher it will need to mounted in the truck to get the same A/S numbers. Since you will have a higher CG you will probably have a really low A/S percentage. Therefore, the rear end will squat upon acceleration. With a T/A I see no reason not to get as close to 100% A/S as packaging will allow. Since the T/A has a non migrating IC by design you should be able to have lots of suspension travel without lots of pinion angle change. Also with a longer T/A you will reduce your chances of having brake hop.
Sorry for the lack of organization of info I just spit up on the page. I havent had my coffee yet.
Good luck with your project.
