    The rears are in. Before I started, I measured from the ground to the bottom of the flares at 40.75. Now I am at 41.25. Starting the front shortly.

    Changed the oil and cabin filter. While underneath I noticed my driver lower control arm ball joint leaking grease. Does it need to be replaced? How bad is this? Thanks.

    I did see that thread and same goes for me, keeping the master switch overriding the other switches until the kids get a little older

    Not sure yet. Going to rotate wheels tomorrow. How do I test if there is play? I assume trying to move the wheel while it’s lifted up?

    2 person job makes it easier.
    Jack up the side you want to check just enough to get a bar under the tire and have someone pull up on the bar manipulating the suspension while you watch for excess play in the ball joint

    Gotcha. Thanks. I’ll test tomorrow. I have new lower control arms I’ve been sitting on for a rainy day. I originally thought my alignment bolts were seized. They were fine. Anyone know the torque specs or where I can find them? So it would be:
    1) cam bolts
    2) shock bolt to control arm
    3) sway bar link to control arm
    4) ball joint castle nut
    5) the two bolts that connect the bracket to the hub??

    Out with the old and in with the new. I didn't have to touch any of the alignment components but I have one scheduled for Friday along with tire balance. The front was a nice workout as they weigh twice as much as the Toytecs. Thanks to Colton @memario1214 for getting these out to me. :hattip:

    Nabbed a spare hood for some paint shenanigans. Going a custom route after getting some off road rock damage.

    Damn these look good! Curious about your initial impressions as well, especially with the bypasses in the rear. I’m eyeing this same setup

    I built a simple rack in my lower yard to store my canopy for the summer. I have a little pop-up camper and wanted to bring it, and my ATV, camping this summer. I really like the look of the pickup without the canopy on it, and it feels like a different vehicle.

    Now I really want to add the 4" lift and 35s.

    Just be careful w/wind... Had a buddy that had his on a similar set up and was being stored between the house and side block wall (thinking it was safe from wind, etc.). First decent gust flipped that thing off the rack and down the side of the house.
