JGC Coils installed!!

New motor is in! Got the truck back at about 9pm and put the springs in today!

I painted the panhard rod and shocks, I had painted the coils last week. I couldn't get enough leverage on the panhard rod nuts without taking the tires off. I suggest to anyone doing it to do that, it made everything much easier. Entire job took about 2 hours. I got a solid 3 inches in the rear, I cranked the T-bars until it looked even. I am pleased with the results. Now I just need my dang front fender flares. Pics are here.....

Sweeeeet! Lookin good! My panhard rod came off pretty easily. Just use a breaker bar or 1/2" drive ratchet for leverage, it'll come off without too many problems.

I used a 1/2 inch drive and a breaker bar...Maybe I need to hit the gym...LOL

Also, spring compressors are a life saver!!

Sweet. I have everything but the time right now- springs, RS 5000's, spring compressors and angle grinder.

What is the max Tbar adjust before I need to start worrying about CV angles?

 

I picked up the springs a week ago and my Harblor Freight order came in today

Leave at least a 1/2" between the UCA and the bumpstop and you should be OK.
