    Too poor to list anything interesting.
    Have to wait for 10 seconds after its snug. Then back off 1/4 turn.

    Dang, now I have to order new U-Bolts. :rolleyes:

    Thanks for the replies gents!

    I'm almost wishing I went with the All-Pro Leaf Pack instead of the Dakars.

    They've gotten better. Energy suspension bushings paired with the cs047r + isolators has been quiet since day 1 and performs like a champ.

    Man I jinxed myself. Took off my drivers side ubolts last night in preparation for installing my 6" shackles today. Last time I had them off I zipped about 3" off the bolts to make them quicker to install. Well I cross threaded one of them :bananadead:

    Okay, the CB drop kit seems to have actually fixed the issue. I'm super happy with this install now, just need to get some slightly larger tires to fill the wells out.

    I'm not sure on the price of it individually, the CB drop came with the full one kit I bought in the group buy ages ago

    It shouldn't be too much, all it was is two 8mm thick spacers, two bolts and 4 washers
