[QUOTE="Danarch, post: 446040, member: 21093"] Not today, but Friday evening and yesterday installed AEV 2.5” lift. Before after picture below. Overall it went well, I’d say the most difficult was installing the front right shock, that was terrible. Second getting the driveshaft disconnected, I thought one bolt was going to snap they were so tight, they had a bunch of blue locktite. Getting the front trackbar aligned was a little difficult too. I picked up 3” in rear and 3.5” in the front. I’m sure it will level out over time. One question I have if anyone knows. The instructions were clear to mark the driveshaft and mounting flange to reinstall it so not to damage anything after reconnecting. Yes I did that, but I am not sure why it would matter if the shaft was rotated a bolt or two off from taking it off. The shaft just turns the differential gears, nothing interlocked for gear alignment. Any thought? [ATTACH type="full"]120774[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]120775[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
