    I miss read your question. Torque all your nuts and bolts, then reinstall your tire(s). I re-checked them after a weekend of playing in the mountains, and greased them again.

    JBA says to use a "high quality bearing grease"
    Including synthetic. I believe I used Lucas or Amsoil

    So these can be installed with out removing the coil over assemblies or anything else? Damn more of an incentive to get these jba arms. Tore into the front suspension a few months ago and didn’t want to repeat the process so soon.

    I believe most if not all UCAs should be able to be installed with everything still on.

    I thought you aren't supposed to torque at full droop?

    2 hours for the install. Took my time.

    Used the original bolt ... thank you to those who gave suggestions.

    For people doing this as a future mod, it's ridiculously easy to get the bolt out. Bend the wheel well just enough to get the bolt head through them hit the other side of the bolt with a long piece of anything. Lol it comes right out. Couldn't have been easier. One of my favorite installs so far on this truck and by far the easiest.
