Re: New front locker with 4.88's
So far they are wearing well. That is the best tire I've ever owned, the tire flex around rocks and traction is outstanding...... I ended up getting both back wheels caught between two huge boulders while running Strike Ravine in Moab about a month ago. The tire pulled a full inch and a half away from the wheel without losing the bead...... incredible.
Absolutely get the Cognito kit! I installed the idler pivot kit also because of the big tires. I have put that front end through hell since I added all that, and have had zero problems with it.........yet.

Re: New front locker with 4.88's
Yeah i had to replace the pitman and idler about 7k back. I replaced it with moog but from what i hear the only way to stop the wear is with the support kit. As far as tie rods what did you end up getting?

Re: New front locker with 4.88's
What up Timmay!
Yeah I've sprayed a little water under there from time to time. It's nowhere near as nice as it once was.
The Dupli-Color truck bed coating works pretty good too. 
When the rocks tear it off....... just spray more on.
The tie-rods are Fab-Tech, Brad.

I kept the 4.10's (in the box) Hopefully I never need them again, but they looked perfect.
