Default Help with lift install

I just got my 3 inch premium plus full traction lift and have a couple questions. The kit came with adjustable front and rear upper control arms and adjustable front and rear track bars. so question is does anyone have this lift and know the lengths I need to set these at to get proper alignment and ride?

You need to set the control arms to the stock lengths, 18 3/4" for the front and 17.5" for the rear. Then adjust to correct the pinion and caster angle. On the upper front thread the heim all the way in. This will get you around 4.5-5 degrees of caster.

Set your trackbars about 1/8" longer than stock.

Please call or email me if you have questions.

17.5" is the starting. You need to adjust the pinion angle after this. Please call me. I'll explain
