Where's the rubbing? Done a BMC yet?Overall it was a decent. Lift is in, Panhard bar is in, KDSS spacers in, wheels and tires on.
Still have some rubbing to deal with, I guess to be expected, but I thought I cleared all the places I'm rubbing so that's not instilling confidence in me.
The rears were not fast in comparison to the front...
1. Passenger front, very difficult to get sorted. Without dropping the sway bar, it was very very tight to get the Ironman shock in place and seated.
2. Driver Rear, top shock bolt. INSANE. Such little clearance to get the tools I needed in there. Needle nose vice grips worked until it actually started to see some torque. Then it would just spin. I ended up having to take some material off, and also modifying my crescent wrench to fit to finally get it. It's not the cleanest, and needs some touchup with a sanding pad and some paint, but it's in there. Passenger side went 100x faster, it felt like there was more clearance, but maybe I just learned from the driver side. I still had to take a bit of material off to fit my tools in there.
Other than that, it went as smoothly as I could have hoped. Ran into issues here and there, but normal stuff for the most part.
As noted on another thread, 6 or 12 ton jack stands are highly recommended in my opinion if you need full droop when raising the vehicle. To get the vehicle high enough to achieve fool droop, 3 ton jack stands are not tall enough.
Need to get an alignment and also find some more garage time this week. The garage time is the hardest thing for me to find as of late.
So far, pleased. This things is tall. Giving me 80 series feels looking at it from the rear.
