I'm in Old Bridge I thought you were still in town. I have the press if you want to do the bushings.
No this piggy is 2wd. My other truck is 4wd.I thought this was a 4wd? I removed and installed these beams by myself on two different dually trucks, one on jack stands the other on a lift. It's not too hard, I use a ratchet strap to strap the trailing arm into place (big stud) once the part to the Kmember is bolted in. I use a jack to help line that part up.
Awesome thank you! My only available helpers are 3 and 4 years old, unfortunately hahaTake wheel and shock off, jack it up till spring is free. Unbolt. Put floor jack under axle at spring mount. Remove radius arm nut. Take bolt out of I beam bushing, pry I beam out of mount and move whole assembly forward. Replace bushings and reassemble.
I've done it alone, two people would be a big help.
After I confirm death wobble is repaired I do have a stabilizer here to install... One daywith many trucks in that era, needed steering stabilizer even with new set ups, especially in longer body styles, seen this in F250, F350 4wd and 2wd
