hey so my brackets finally blew a hole in my diff :( and i was wondering what could i do to prevent this in the future. i was gonna grind a little bit of the bracket and put in a little longer bump stops. a friend said y not add a little plating on it, would that be a good idea or not

thanks :icon_cheers:

edit- or what type of new bracket would be better so this doesnt happen again?

gonna add some more guessets once i get it in there and probably add some new bumpstops as well. i bought mine from another memeber here and he said he never had a problem with them hitting the diff. it was in a ranger though. there may be some differences in how they mount.

i'd just look into finding some used brackets on here that use an actual drop bracket instead of a drop plate.
 
I'm not lifting mine till I can afford a proper DBR kit...

Drop bracket kits for your truck don't damage the diff like in the TTB setups. Apples to oranges....
