    Yeah I couldnt figure a way to use the jack to support it so I just laid on my back threw the diff on my chest and scooted myself into position to lift it up. What a pain in the ass and I hope I don't have to do it again ever

    Unfortunately, the truck will not be rolling tonight. I got an incorrect spacer for the lower cam bolts so AP has to send me the right one.

    Fine with me. I get to wire and plumb lockers then :rofl:

    It happens but not related to the 37s so thats a good thing, I doubt I would have even broke a CV if it wasn't for the differential rotating the far up

    All the hard stuff is done!

    Have to weld limit straps and resi's on which will be quick.

    I also mounted up the compressor as well so just need to run wires and plumb the lockers.

    Woot!

    Then you need to mount them higher. I have mine strapped at about .5-1 inch of droop left.

    I mounted them where all Pro says to mount them. I cranked them down and when I let the jack off it kept drooping and I noted the mount started to bend and felt like the welds were gunna break

    with a welder lol.

    I did end up cutting the spring down about a 1/4". I don't have a picture so I'll try to get some tomorrow if I don't have to work, but i welded them on right behind the bump stops there a slot cut in the frame, and i did it right behind that i believe.
