did you crank both bolts all they way in? one is longer than the other so it would be uneven if you did. keep an eye on your balljoints too wtih a full crank

I'm not bashing you for that. We already proved both rights / wrongs from totally different perspectives of this Mod.

Seriously? I mean, I agree with you on most aspects of where your coming from. I am not going to completely dissagree because honestly I have not tried what you have said needs to be done. When I cage this truck and buy a new one I will definately try exactly how you do it.
