    Might as well throw on 2.0 air bumps and limit straps while you got it apart. What bushings did the Solo LCA's come with?

    Ah shit, I forgot I had limit strap tabs on these solo arms.
    Too cheap for air bumps, durobumps do the job
    And they just come with urethane bushings. $120 for replacements. Mine are a little noisy but otherwise okay. Replacing them because I’m already in there doing the alignment cam plates
    What setting do you have your cam plates to?

    Rears outboard and fronts inboard. That's with stock LCA's. With the Solo's you might be able to go neutral/neutral and still be fine.

    Took the 1st gen out to mess around in Mojave for a bit lastnight. Stock suspension was ASS but still pushed it, maybe a bit too far at some points lol. Saving up for LT now though

    I don’t think these wheel chocks are going to cut it. Need to get my line lock installed.

    That’s a good idea. I’m going to try the rear for now. Mostly for wheeling, I understand they’re not a suitable ebrake replacement.

    Kind of wish for the factory rear drum brakes so I could have an ebrake. Bought it this way though and stopping with four wheel discs is great.

    A way to lock the pressure in the brake lines. So you press the brake pedal then apply the line lock and it holds the brakes in.

    They tend to bleed pressure after awhile so not an absolute solution to an ebrake. UPS trucks use them all day everyday but for short durations.
