  1. They will need to be aimed down so you are not "that guy" blinding people in on coming traffic or blinding the car in front of you. It's easy. I marked the screw at the 12 o'clock position and completed one full clock wise turn, I am blinding less people now and the beam is on the road. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  2. If you haven't already, remember to re-aim your headlights. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  3. The issue was not with the amount of drop allowed by the control arms. The issue was with the degree of angle the CV axle shaft is at in relation to the 2" spacer on the bottom of the strut. Once the spacer is put in place, there is just not enough clearance between the CV axle shaft and the hole for the new longer bolt to slide in. Thus, the need to disconnect the upper bj to allow just a little more room for the lower shaft the clear. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  4. I used a prybar and placed it through the spring on the frame to apply downward pressure on the bj so it would not spin. I tightened it till I couldn't anymore. When I took it in for alignment I told the tech to please check all the bolts for tightness. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  5. On my 15 Z 4x4 simply loosening the upper bj and loosening the upper strut three nuts was not enough. There was just not enough drop in the lower A arm to clear the CV axle. Note, I did add the .5" upper strut spacer first. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  6. Thought I'd share this. I know its the hot thing right now to black out everything. A lot of people are using plasti-dip. This is simple black vinyl usually used for making signage. I simply laid it over and trimmed to fit using a razor blade. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  7. I had this Paragon cover on my '12. Simply ordered longer brackets for the front, and fit like a glove. Only $699 shipped and made is USA. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  8. No problem. I did the 2" MotoFab on the bottom and also added the .5" above the strut. I did not do the rear at all. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  9. On the Z71 (4x4) you have to disconnect the upper ball joint completely from the upper A arm to allow enough room for the knuckle to drop in order to insert the new longer bolt for the spacer. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
