Thanks Nate. I'm actually installing the rear hardware kit this weekend. Hoping to get the 5/6 kit soon.

if you do both the upper and lower you can push the rear axle back to center it in well.

NOTE= Buying only lowers will give you so much negative pinion angle truck will vibrate bad. Had a guy that just bought lowers from a online place and moved the axle so far back to try to center pinion was facing like -8. I always set people up with both upper/lowers. Make lowers 9/16 longer and uppers 1/2 inch longer.

Only some of the bolts were loose so it did make some noise. Got new tires and a wheel alignment. I asked the tech to check and tightened everything up.
