Well I finally got the poly bushings in, and the truck rides like New again. I noticed the height difference immediately as there were no bushings left and the cab was sitting on the frame.


I also had a vibration at speed so I took a close look and found that 2 of the 3 universal joints were shot. So between the bushings and u joints the truck feels and drives like brand New !!

 

Congrats! Did you happen to take any before and after photos?

 

Sorry I did not, but I bought the bolt kit as well and did not need them. Put some heat on them and they came off pretty easy. The rear seat had to come out to access the nuts under the carpet and inspection plates, that took a little time but the whole job took me 5 hrs. I had the universal joints put on at my local 4X4 shop, and I went with the ones that are greaseable.

 

very inspirational...need to do mine

 

I don't think i need to do mine yet, but I'm sure I will at some point. Good tips to keep in mind.
