But if you stick the crank rod in first...crawl under truck and look 2 inches above where the crank rod leads to - HOLE.

Note: I think it's a 1/2 - it could be 3/4...just match the drive to the crank rod.
No need to pop plastic off and risk cracking it or breaking the tabs...

A 1" and 2" lift crossmember, you'll have to cut out the stocker and have a welder buzz in the new one.

yes no mods required, i believe its actualy a 3/8 extension with a ratchet I used. Just go from behind the bumper instead of through it

thanks everyone. I had missed this item completely in the 4crawler.com instructions and was never an issue until today when I had a flat.

As always, when I contacted Roger Brown he responded in virtually real time. It is such a delight to deal with vendors so responsive to their customers.
