Echoing two prior comments: 1. I applaud the captured delrin bushing design for the pinion/rack, but IMO, it must have either a dynamic pressure (aka Pinion spring preload), _or_ an end-customer-viable method to adjust the fixed-lash to account for tens & tens of thousands of wear miles. 2...

Received a set today. Ordered through Polyperformance.

Bump - to OME - ETA for BP51 for Bronco ? (non Raptor) Had a 3” lift combo of your MD and HD springs and LTR shocks on a Disco1 for 20 years; flawless.

Compared to zero offset, high positive offset allows for wider a-arms, ~2” longer front halfshafts/better max CV droop. Hopefully more than a couple of +55mm offset choices from the aftermarket.

Running larger tires, frequent front locker use, and/or living with salted roads would be a consideration to swap to solid/upgraded hub connections. One advantage of the vacuum hub actuators is the ability to add a switch to the solenoid to cut-off vacuum and have a 2WD Low Range; this is...
