Walmart fish scale just removed shims and swapped them around till it was at about 15 lbs.
I would give an hour per side with jack wheel and cleanup, but second side went faster once I figured out to cut a slit in the brake line bracket to get the line out of the way, cut through it with a die grinder/ wizz wheel carefully
You need to clean everything good and install the bracket and torque the bolts each time you test, expect to disassemble each side several times
You need to remove the rear tie rod from drivers side to get it off the pass side, not enough clearance under the pinion
I have messed with these on older stuff but the how to in the tech section is real good

Its not too bad but bigger tires amplify the effects. We will see soon. Just cut down some stock radius arm bushings to allow room for washers to space the front axle forward before I cycle it all and see where I rub. The swivel preload just moved to the top of the list though after I finish all that.
