I have the single and it works great. I did not just just hand tightened though without over doing it. Was really worried about spec on a SS.

Yeah Im pretty sure they are Polly. Ive only had the kit on for about 4 months, but it drives great! Highway speeds its a little squirly at about 80 wich im not sure if that is normal for a lift this size or if I need to do some adjustments.

I found that the metal that's used on this set-up is inferior and roughcountry should consider a stronger alloy. Otherwise I am still enjoying the benefits of the dual set-up.

What part are you referring to? The brackets?

Yes the brackets bent while tightening.... All, including the big one. The bends are minor but the bolts didn't seem to want to stop when I was installing them. Of course I stopped torquing down as soon as they started to bend.

Yeah my bracket bent to the shape of the tie rod also. I got a new bracket and did not tighten them as much. No issues after that.
