    Check and see if you have a sway bar. Previous owner may have ditched it

    The steering wheels shifts, the whole car just seems like it’s not planted when I hit bumps. I checked the tie rods and they LOOK okay. But at this point it could be anything

    People think I’m joking when I say this but, I have a spread sheet of certain purchases such as guns, truck parts, sports memorabilia, coins, and tools that have the purchase price. It is password protected folder in the event of my death the password is in my will (I never change the password when i change computers) my wife can access it then and sell what she wants and not get screwed over lol.

    So the leaf springs came in already... literally 2 days from ordering. Quick as hell. From West coast to East coast.

    Also just received the Needle Bearing replacement from ECGS. Figured I’d do that the same time I did the lift. 0A4928AD-AD71-4C8C-BE5F-1517C51F12BC.jpg

    You honestly might not even need to do it. I didn’t and I have no vibrations. Lift it first then check if you need it after.

    The front end vibration has been there since I got it. Spacer lift was on it. Goes away in 4WD, so definitely the bearing.

    For the leafs. I know the company puts “+” or “-“ on them depending on the tolerance when they are made. Do I put the plus side on the driver side to compensate for the lean in the rear? Also, the front would be the sides with the markings for plus and minus correct? @HeadStrong Off-Road

    So the lift just came in...

    I’m extremely impressed with the packaging and quality overall. Heavy as crap. But I ended up ordering lower control arms and tie rods as well, so waiting for those before I do the install.

    Edit: For those that haven’t seen them in person, the shocks are massive. But also sexy as hell.
