The factory lower bolt for the end links are splined and are pressed in from the factory. All you need is to drinch it in WD-40 and a BIG ******* HAMMER. And pound away. They will eventually come out. Atleast that's what I had to do for mine.

I put a cinder block right up against the lower link bracket so when I kept hitting it with a BFH I wouldn't bend the bracket.

Are extended bump stops necessary for a 4.5" lift? I am about to order extended brake lines and quick discos and that thought of extended bump stops is stopping me.

If they are where can I find some that aren't 200 dollars?! and does it require taking the spring out to install them?
