cool, i like the drop for the front with these springs but it sits waaay too high in the back

[ff_drift_lol]

Top bolt - 66 lb/ft

Bottom bolt - 81 lb/ft

Be careful when re-installing the lower shock bolt, it's fairly easy to cross thread if there are any loads.

Also, it is not recommended to use the pinch seam for anytheing except the stock jack. it's do-able, but i don't recommend it. Also, if you are using the rear TWB for a jack point, use a 2by4 to spread the weight evenly across both edges of the beam.

Images uploading. Otherwise, good how to. Also, i use an old cross-tip screwdriver to align the top shock if i have removed the bolt.
