unlock the hubs  ;D

seriously if you have "auto" hubs, you need it to disengage so you can wiggle and turn the shaft to get it to go back in ...

No, you need to backup to make sure they are fully disengaged.

Actually, don't the 99+ have fulltime hubs with an air activated differential that disengages?

Do you have anything other than the Calmini kit on there?  I gotta get me one of those 2.5" lift kits.

well it was 5" on the front..and that is 20 secconds after it was installed lol so it will sag

also with the 2.5kit it came with a small diff drop on the front

looks like 1 1/2"  so the angles are fine

and yes that 2.5kit is all that is on there even has stock size tires still

so we are assuming itl sag 1" or so front and rear but he is going to get some 31s so that will more then make up for the sag
