OK folksI was able to get most of the front suspension knocked out yesterday and this morning. Before I tackle the monster nut and torque on the hub assembly, please give a quick look and let me know if I did something wrong or something looks out of sorts.

Here are some driver side pictures:

and the Passenger side:

I did have to trim the rear legs of the UCA to get the measurements for PS.

Thanks for the help.

As long as those steering arms have the wide end of the hole pointing down you look good to go. Did you check and set the rebound on the shocks before installing them?

Jeff,

Thanks. I did check the shocks. I just reverified that the wide end of steering arms is pointed down. I had checked the orientation with the arms to ensure that they would fit from the bottom.

Thanks
