    If your loosening the lower control arm; Make a mark on the alignment cams so when you go back to tightening it you'll get an okay alignment to work with so you can drive the truck to get an alignment done.

    You may run into some angle issues on the driveshaft. Be prepared to read up on the fixes for that...it can be tough to figure out.

    You need to loosen the lower control arms so they can swing down to give you room. Mark the alignment cams before doing so like already said.
