Installed 2" AS today

So I finally installed my 2" AS and I am very happy! The install took about an hour and a half. The key tool was an impact wrench. It made the job a lot easier. Reassembly was wierd because it did not look right at all until we got the truck off the jack stands and let it settle. It was a real struggle to reconnect the LCA and UCA together. As we jacked up the LCA the whole truck would lift up off the jack and the UCA was almost touching the spring once we connected it. However in the end it leveled out great .


I installed the 2" AS but I actually got 2.25" out of it after the alignment.
