The kit also included an axle "rebuild" kit, wheel bearings, steering bearings, all the seals, new rotors, and a 3/8" plate you have to weld to the driver side spring pad.

unbolted the upper control arms, idler arm, pitman arm, shocks, and torsion bars (we cut the passenger side torsion bar due to the hard brake lines and transfer case making it difficult to remove)

checking the shakle angle the vehicle needs to have full weight on the springs, the angle was just barly back of vertical, but once the new springs break in it should be closer to 20% (front what the kit instructions say)

after everything is removed you have to tack on the front spring hanger, in the directions it says you can mount it either flush with the frame or 3/4" forward. I purchased the 4" lift springs with 1" lift shakles (total 5" lift) so i put it 3/4" forward so that we could get a proper shackle angle

we mildly rebuild this 1985 solid front axle, only items that are original are the case, axle shafts, differential, lower bearing caps, spindles and hubs.
