God I hope so... I put it all back together without doing ****. I'm going to take it out to a buds that has a impact wrench and do the job. The instructions said I needed a impact wrench so I just figured it was on REAL TIGHT!

 

Post some pics when you're done.

 

I used the instructions to install my 2.5" kit last weekend. It took about 2 hrs. Of course we had to go to the store to replace the breaker bar we were using on the 30mm nut. That suckers "ON" there.
I had the alignment done the next morning and gave it a couple of days before measuring it. The front is within 1/4" of the back now.
One of the best Mods you can do for the look of a truck, IMHO.
Thanks for the directions. I posted a pic in my gallery.

 

 

Thank you for this thread. Pictures were perfect. Takes about 1.5-2hrs. 2nd side goes much smoother, obviously. I'm just waiting for my 18x10 Classic II's and 33x13.5x18 DC F-C II's to show up in the mail.
I didnt have a 30mm so I used locking pliers on the nut, and I doubled up wrenches on the head. Came right off. Getting the ball joint (upper CA to lower CA) reconnected sucked the first time around. Once I got the nut started I just held the top of the ball joint shaft with pliers and turned nut until the hex end of shaft stuck out the bottom of the nut enough to grab it with the pliers (probably should use a wrench on the hex shaft so not to round it off). Second side took 30-35mins. Not bad after its all done. If you can turn a wrench and have a little strength you should definately save the money and install this yourself. Thanks again for this thread and all who contributed. God bless.

 

Worked perfect!

 

Going to dig this one out of the depths and promote to Technical Articles & How-To... Thanks for your contribution!
