Any benefit of using super duty springs over the factory springs? I will probably use super duty springs just for the fact they are newer and better condition. I know you have to drill out the hangers for the larger hardware. I would like truck to be level so will have to wait see how front sits.

what did you do for torque sequence?
those top BJ sleeves look dirty, did you remove them so they can slide?

Impressed with them so far even come with adapters for ball joint press. Time will see how well the hold up, install went well.

I removed sleeve and cleaned them, tightened lower first then upper. If knuckle is still hard to turn loosen upper and tap on axle c until sleeves adjust then tighten. If knuckle is hard to turn you will have bad memory steer. This has worked well for me so far on solid axle fords.

The TTX were in good shape but i replaced them all since i didnt know the age.
i learned my lesson last year on the sleeve. thanks for that info
I went with tighten lower to 30, tap sleeve down, tighten upper to 69, tighten lower to 150
