    For you SPC users, step 8 mentions using position D for 2-3 inch lifts. Toytec said set them in the neutral position as a starting point....is D neutral? What do you guys recommend? I will take the sheet with me when it goes for the alignment. It also mentions greasing the ball joint.....are they not greased at all out of the box? Thanks

    @Tundra234 set them at “D” and all the way forward. They do need to be greased initially (10 pumps) and then at every 10k miles.

    It’s not too bad. Probably an hour a side. You just have to move some of the wires and hoses out of the way while pulling the long ass bolt out. Pull it out from the engine compartment.
