Where's a good place to order suspention straps from?
-
Im using the front limmiter straps from a 6 inch superlift kit for 88 - 99 chev 1/2 ton. They are the perfect size. I dont know if you can buy them separatly though. I left them out of some kits I installed. (tarbabys dont need them anyways!) The really help the struts last longer if your popping the front off the ground a lot and it feels smoother... However, Ive broken quite a few. Im actually on my last pair. I should probabally start looking for a more durable pair. Let us know if you come up with something good. I wonder if prerunner vendors might be the place to be looking for these? :-/

In my local 4wd club, we have a member who owns a canvas shop. He has made straps for us real cheap (and repaired the soft tops). He's made them from 3" and 4" strap material.
I'd check you local canvas shop, boat covers, etc. Bring him length & width dimensions, the mounting hardware and just have him sew it together. Takes only 5 minutes.
Suggestion: with the long travel of the suspension, add a hook and loop in the middle of the strap (determine at/near static), so that when you have to lift the tire in the air (place rocks, debri, change the tire, etc) with little lift of vehicle, you can actually lift the tire because you hooked the strap together.

Here I was refering to the pull straps, not suspension limiting straps.
