Hoping to install this weekend. BEEN soaking the nuts and bolts on the Jimmy w/ PB Blaster for a week now.
Ez inch is going on the back for the saggy rear, any install tips would be most appreciated. Also, Just replacing 2 front shocks on the quad shock set up. Should I just leave the older smaller one on and keep it a quad?
New steering stabilizer going on too.
Thanks for any input.
 
most people ditch the dual shock setup, so i would take it off. those bilsteins will be just fine by themselves. you might want to go ahead and buy new u-bolts instead of re-using them, i had to cut them off last time so thats a thought also!:D
 
Yea I bought new u-bolts. I was told that u-bolts shouldn't be reused or re-torqued but in any case the old ones would have been to short with the extra inch. Never thought about cutting the old ones off, course I have tried to remove them yet either might be a good option.
 
if you decide to cut them just take a grinder or whatever you may have and cut them loose, i soaked mine but still had to cut them off. good luck! lol
