Made some progress on the suspension finally and got the front completely done today.
5100’s 3rd notch, factory springs
KYB Top mounts
Replaced Oem Lower ball joints (old ones still looked like new at 177k?)
Cleaned speed sensors
Cleaned and re tighten pinion seal on rack (it’s got a small leak
Gave everything a nice scrub and wash.

Something always has to go wrong. Luckily this little bolt came right out with a counter drill.


Everything torqued and job done.

Gave me exactly a 2” lift and put me right at 22” hub to fender in the front and 21” in the rear. Front should settle down some to where I want. I have Wheelers progressive AAL coming in this week. I think with out the over load spring and the 5100’s in the rear, should sit just right with a slight rake even with the topper and added weight in rear.
