Steering Brace and stabilizer bar drop blocks.

Two Weeks ago I received my PSC steering brace. I did not install it right away because the only information i could find on this forum regarding the fit of the brace with stabilizer bar brop blocks is that it won't work. Well this week-end i thought to myself I should give it a try and see what the actual issues are and why it wouldn't fit togeter. Well to my surprise there was more than enough clearance between the brop blocks and the brace to allow for both to work properly.

I was going to purchase a set of extended links from Thuren to eliminate the drop blocks before trying to install the brace, but i'm sure as heck glad that i tried. As anyone on this forum i love spending cash on my truck, but with just buying a house, the $189 can be spent on something else.

Attached are the pics of the install. Hope this helps anyone who has hesitated on installing or purchasing a steering brace because of the stabilizer bar drop blocks interfearance. The blocks on my truck came as a part of my 4.5" Tuff Country lift.

There was absolutely no modifications necessary to either components.
I have a couple more pictures. If anyone wants them PM me.

Looks good.

I also have the PSC steering gear brace and needed something for when my 4.5" Fabtech kit arrives.

I opted for the 4"-6" Thuren extended links......they should be here next week!
