    thanks! Don’t worry. I’m finishing up the fronts on Saturday morning and an alignment at 1pm. Then going to head up to the mountains Monday to test it out and get it dirty.

    Truck is done. Finished up the front end tonight. Took me and a buddy just over 3 hours. It drives so nice. Getting an alignment tomorrow. Truck sits with just a slight rake. Be interested to see where it settles.

    I will!! I’ll drop some pics in better lighting for you. And I will say, if I didn’t have my buddy to help with the fronts it would of taken me a lot longer doing it solo. The backend was much smoother.

    so far no problems. Haven’t really put it into any hairy situations but everything feels good as a daily driver.

    Do it! I did the backs by myself. But I recommend a second hand for the fronts. It made things go much smoother. It can be done with one person but it more efficient with two.

    Also PB blast all your bolts 1-2 days before. I did that an didn’t have any problem getting them off.
