[QUOTE="DeerHunter44, post: 1544836, member: 44120"] Rears should be a matter of minutes with just upper and lower bolt on each side. Fronts will require disconnecting or removing a few steering/braking components to get the shock and spring assembly out of the truck. Then the spring will need to be compressed and swapped over to the new shock. I haven’t done this yet but I’m hoping it’s pretty simple. I’ve found some videos of removing the assembly but I haven’t found one for the actual spring swap process. Right now I’m thinking a few hours should be plenty of time. If I’m feeling good after I’m done I’ll post up my experience with some lessons learned[emoji3061] Also the lower front shock bolt requires 400 ft-lb of torque so I need to figure that one out too. My torque wrench tops out at 250 ft-lb. I only have 30 days to return my shocks as part of the exchange agreement so I’ll get on it as soon as they get here.
