    Well, I have the 887 coilover installed, but I can't reconnect the sway bar. It is about 2 to 3 inches to low to connect to the spindle. When I jack the LCA to try and get the two to meet, the whole truck jacks up because of the strength of the coilover.

    Ideas? Any help appreciated.

    I'm an idiot. Sway bar was also connected to the non lifted side. So it wouldn't let it rotate enough on the lifted side. That's why all the instructions tell you to take the sway bar off 1st. Thanks
