installing control arms
 
Hey guys,

I've got a set of upper adjustable control arms for the rear axle and I'm
going to install them today. is it just a matter of taking one out and
putting the new one in on one side and repeat on the other? It doesn't seem
like there will be enough play in the axle to add the length I need without
going back and forth a bunch of times.

So do you do them one at a time, or both at the same time or what?
n.

A different length would dictate putting them on at the same time
as it fixes the pinion angle. http://www.4x4xplor.com/RE-SuperFlex.html

All I have to say is, "Duh". The probably would have become obvious to me
when I got under there.

Thanks, Bill.

Stick everything you can think of underneath the frame like your
tires to start, don't just depend on jack stands.
