Here's a good shot of how tight you have to stretch them. If you want to make it easier, you can choose to go ahead and install the stainless brake lines. This will allow you to drop the axle some more, but you will still have to watch the abs line. You can also see that we've already removed the lower control arms as well.
Now here is the most tedious step in the install. You have to measure the new control arms and make them match the measurements in the instructions, just measure center to center to get it done. The closer the better, but you'll still need to get it aligned anyway. Also be sure to apply as much tq as you can to the jam nuts, and apply red loctite as well.
With all of the old parts removed, its time install the new Rock Krawler stuff. Our camera died, so I don't have any pictures of the reassembly. We kept working to make our deadline. However, the installation is the exact reverse of the disassembly. Just be sure that everything is tight. Now lets head over to the back. |
