I just finished installing a RE 4.5 today. I have a few questions.
First, I had a Heck of a time putting the sway bar disconnects back together. I was as if the sway bar had bent, one side was taller than the other. I thought these were something that was easily taken on and off at the trailhead. It will not be an easy task with out tools.
Second, The self-tapping bolts (screws) that came with the bump stops did not tighten up very well. I did not want to put a gorilla grip on them for fear of stripping them.
Third, The center bolt that came with the Add-A-Leaf, was not tight after I put on the U-bolts and tightened them down. The center pin rotates even though I tightened them to 20 ft/lbs (I think that was the speck.) Will this be ok, or should I take the U-bolts off and re-torque the pin?
Thank you; any help will be appreciated.
