Sad thing is I have seen wood blocks under front leafs to lift a truck

At least you guys try to do things as proper and safe as possible I enjoy watching your process/ fabbing

 

Sorry about the delay, I got stuck on a long project at work, the new adjustable panhard rod should be here Saturday, I should be able to install it this weekend... I will post the results.

Thank you again for all of your input

This is my first lifted vehicle, as well as my first time working on my own truck, that being said, I have a ton of stupid question, I'm almost afraid to ask...

After I get the new Panhard Rod on, can I make a list of questions and post it in this thread?

Thank you again,
Kalev

 

When you install the panhard you will want to re-enter the axle under the truck. I just judged by clearance between the shocks and spring perches. Line it up with ratchet straps and adjust the panhard to what you need.

 

Yikes, I hope I can figure this out :|

LOL Thank you for the advice...

 

Most questions can be answered by the search bar, that said ask away there is a plethora of knowledge here and seems to be one of the best sites I found for the d1

 

Ok, bad news, the Adjustable Panhard Rod didn't solve the problem... Everything on the front end "looks" tight, but I'm not sure where to go next :/

 

go spend 10-15 bucks on an angle finder and measure your caster angle. you want 5-7 degrees.

 

Swivel bearing pre load, in the tech section all you need is a fish scale to check it, if loose like having bad ball joints

 

will that show when putting a pry bar between the tire and ground, the same way one can check ball joints/bearings? that should be something OP should check as well, as that can create death wobble too.

 

I have not done mine yet have to buy a scale, I would think if they are that loose you need bearings not just the pre load adjusted

Seems easy
Remove wheel
Disconnect all tie rods from hub
Turn hub to Max right hook scale on tie rod hole
Turn hub all the way to left by pulling on scale
Should be 11 to 15 lbs on each hub
Remove shims to tighten bearings
