Tomorrow? And yeah everything is really tight but I read that not having it in spec can cause them, I should be getting an alignment sometime this week, I need to before i get my tires so I don't eff them up. But when I was installing the rears I was tightening them and the bushing got over compressed and expand and shot the nut right off the stud.

And to the other mike's, you guys should both go lets try to get a big group. I'm sure if my buddies stock ranger with IFS can make it you should too.

Why don't a couple of us meet up tomorrow if you get the time off and I'm pretty sure we can figure it out. Plus do the lift too. I got a few tools that will help out.
