quick lift install question
I'm getting ready to put a 3.5 AEV lift and full size LOD bumpers front and back with a Zeon winch. So my question is which one do I install first?
Do I need to put the bumpers on then the lift so I can tighten it all up with the full weight on it?
Or do I need to do the lift and then the bumpers? Does it even make a difference?
Thanks

YES, install the bumpers and winch. Make sure you loosen all of the suspension bushings so they can be reset. You will then set your bushings when you tighten verything up at the last step- vehicle on ground, loaded as it is so that the control arm busings, track bars etc will all be at their new neutral postion. Should get a better ride and longer life from bushings.
