Always check your u bolts after putting new springs in, I was missing 1 nut and 2 others where holding on by a thread, was going to check them before lcmp but it sliped my mind. Also got to get a new u bolt locator for the top. the other side was fine. I think this happened on the trip home from LCMP.

often the case----The issue is the U bolts are stretching if they are not preloaded enough....

you might have to fast forward a bit because he craps on like a faggot for most of the vid

Rabbit. Nice vid. I onky got like 3 mins inwhere he is undoing the first 2 bolts of the u bolt and i had to stop. If you dont know what you doing then dont do it. He was obviously clueless.
