    Prothane Body Mounts

    A few questions #1 Do the seats all have to come out to change these? #2 Where do you buy replacement bolts if they snap? #3 Is this something a normal backyard garage guy can do? Joseymack

    car alignment

    I think your answer is YES buy the camber bolts for alignment. If you truck is like my 03 I found when i redid my upper control arm with Moog the factor cambers were factory set with a pre drilled offset. I had to buy the cam bolt and casters to get it to align properly... Cheap money Joseymack

I think a second time around would be easier but be prepared for some trouble with the highpressure hose and low pressure house. It is a press fitting which goes from the pump into the pinion. Mine was rusted up and...
