    I have a set of 720 lumens XPRs siting in my garage catch all drawer. I'll sell them to you on the cheap, they have never been out of the box. PM me if you want them. These are the more expensive ones on the site.

    Removal of the bolt.
    For the passenger side you will have to bend the sheet metal slightly towards the tire. You will not damage anything, just make sure you are only grabbing the sheet metal, not anything that runs behind it. Also on the passenger side you will have to remove a line form a clip on the back side of the sheet metal.
    Driver side you will have to move/massage some lines, hose clips and battery cables form the lower left hand side of the battery (lefthand side facing the battery, like you standing in front of the truck looking at the battery.) Pulling the bolt forward while gently moving the UCA will help. If you can get a punch in the rear most mount hole of the UCA and tap it in with a hammer, that will help also.

    to put the bolts back in, I get them started with a long punch from the front, doing a little tap in then checking in the wheel well for placement, while installing the washers, once you have the front UCA mount in the rest is pretty much smooth sailing. Just have to get past the tight spots on the driver and passenger at the sheet metal.

    I'm never in the back so I haven't paid any attention. I'll check when I leave for work.

    1.25" spacers and Tuff Country UCA's.
    The ball joint boots that come with them don't fit the ball joint, so I'm either sourcing my own or putting the JBA's on. But the Tuff Country's do give a LOT of caster. AZTP was able to dial in 5deg with the alignment.

    Def check out Arizona Toy Pros, they were extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and hit the mark on the alignment. Have a quality alignment rack and was fast and efficient. My alignment was WAY out due to the lift/UCA's, he did align twice, once to get it close enough to spec to read, once to dial it in.

    Call as soon as you are ready to book alignment though. Alignment appointments are scheduling 2-3 weeks out currently.

    Of course they’ll bounce because they don’t fold all the way down without taking off the headrest

    So I got excited that I might be able to make the headrests fit better behind the seat by folding down the metal bits and ran outside instead of doing work to do that.

    Then I realized the folding function is part of the seat and not the headrest. I'm sad now.

    I am not on here a lot, but saw this pic. You have a build thread for your truck? Looks sweet from the back!

    I used a pry bar, no channel locks and it looks fine. No ripped metal and no issues taking it out. Bolt installed back in same position.

    Picked up a multimeter and some fuzes from harbor freight. Not exciting but another step towards building my my DIY capacity.
