my shackles are here and im about to get to work on lowering my rear. what should i do to prevent any squeekage? should i lube these babies up or somthin?
ill post pics up when im done

 

¡Engrase la mierda fuera del yo de bujes!

 

 

sí sí.. quiero mucha lubricación

 

if you jack the truck up, dont completely tighten the shackles until the truck is sitting on its own weight. if so, they will squeak while you drive.

 

Good tip! thanks

 

ok im done. it was pretty easy. i didnt get any vibrations but i only went up to 55 mph too many cops out tonight and i dont feel like driving to the interstate. ill test it tomorrow and post some before and after pics.

 

are there torque values for the shackle to the frame and the springs to the shackle? I'm doing mine this weekend, hopefully I'll grab some before and after pics as well.

 

i'd hit em with some grease and not overtighten the bolts

 

im not too shure i just torqued them the same. im gonna drive it a bit and check the torque again and see if its all good
