    Upon closer inspection, the washer gap between washer and bushing gave it away. Good catch

    Thanks bae. Kudos to you. Hard to catch but I wasn't trying to make it easy.

    I jacked it up, removed the wheel and cranked that bitch like Soulja boy. I got it cranked as much as I could without risking snapping it. I have spares in the garage ready to go, but I didn't want to have a really bad night. I'll give it a few days and crank it a bit more.

    To be honest, I'm thinking about removing the UCAs, clean them up, paint them, new poly bushings and toss them back in. But, with everything else going on up front, that's going to likely be a 2022 problem. Also not sure if I want to outright replace them. If that's the case, that's DEFINITELY a 2022 problem.

    Easier sure, but not "supposed to". Buddy had his nut back off and flipped like you have them, they slid down and rubbed through one of the big electrical cables. Had to swap the main fuse on it in the dirt cuz of that. Isnt that much harder to put back the oem way.

    Looks good. I will have to do some test fitting.

    To be honest, I understand that having something is better than nothing, but it doesn't seem like it's worth running one. Idk maybe just me..

    Yeah Randy advised the cutting and mentioned he doesn't have them on, so I assume that means they've been gone prior to the LT upgrade.
