Dirt King Fabrication?

Dirt King Fabrication - Suspension Systems

Has anyone heard of these guys? They are somewhat local to me and seem to specialize in what I am looking for... custom suspension and fabrication for off-road.

They have some of their own branded long travel kits.
4Runner

Does anyone have any experience with this company or long travel kit?

They only come in +3.5 and with bushing LCA mounts vs some manufacturers that have a heim option (heims=more alignment adjustment but more squeak potential).

Not much cheaper than Total Chaos if I recall correctly. But haven't heard anything bad about the DK setup, I'm sure it's a nice kit.

DK has a stock length LCA with uniball and delrin inner bushings if you don't want to go the LT route. I've been looking at them as an alternative to the TC LCA.

Awesome, nice to have another company to consider for LT parts.

I knew about TC and Camberg but this is the first time hearing about this company.

Ill have to do some more poking around and see if I can find any 4Runner users.

Not much talk around these guys when you compared to the others.

I am running their UCA on my 4runner. Like others have said, squeaking is there and hard to get rid of. That is truly the only reason I don't like them. I live up a dirt road and you can hear me coming a mile away. I find it very annoying and carry some teflon dry lube in my door to blast on the uniball but it honestly only seems to last 10 min before the squeaking comes back worse than before and eases up over a couple days but is always there. Thats my review...I've had trouble searching for other peoples reviews on them or how to best solve the squeak.

I have DK upper arms. They are great. I think I have maybe 15-20K on them now, no issues. Yes they squeak a little, but it's a poly bushing with uniball....not much you can do besides keep them well lubed. Thats not a DK thing, its any manufacture that does that bushing/ball joint set up.

Just reading up on DK and wondering if anyone has current comments their UCAs ?
