    There's my vote, the only thing I didn't like about the triangle is that it's difficult to keep the axle centered in the middle of the triangle throughout the axle range. It's also just as difficult with the Step notch, but less noticable.

    my last bagged truck had a traditional style step notch. if your link bars are long enough it will stay alot closer to center throughout the range of travel unless you are running an obscene amount of lift.

    Yes I understand that, but when it comes time to bag mine, I want to get all the lift I can.:D
    A holdover from my 4wd days I guess. I will probably also either fab a set or buy a set of Cando's front high lift A-arms.

    I would say go with the traditional. I like to keep my notches as low as possible and the triangular will be taller. If you are looking for another option check this one out http://www.gravity-werx.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=934 Its one I designed for gravity werx I have used it and like it a lot.
