Thanks. Any idea how difficult it is? A least it’s cheaper especially shouldn’t need alignment.

Easy to do. You may want a shorter set of U bolts, as I don’t know if the factory ones used with blocks have enough threads once the block is removed.

Wouldn’t they be too long if I were to take out the blocks ? I haven’t crawled under there yet to examine.

Just took a peek under mine. The U-bolts will be really close to having enough threads if you take the block out. Might just plan on getting some 2wd U-bolts.

1.5" auto spring so we have a little bit of rake. We've used this size kit on the last three 1/2 to and have no complaints.

Hows the ride quality with this set up?

Btw for people wondering about readylift... I had readylift on my f250, no problems with it and good quality.

It tightened up, especially the rear. I think it feels pretty good, more controlled would be a good way to put it. It's not luxury car smooth, but I'm happy. I think I had about 150 miles on the truck when I did it, with the FX4 package, and the front still got better.
