Limit Strap Install

[ATIII]

Just scored a set of these, brand new on Craigslist for $50. Anyone have them installed, pics? Main question is how do I go about adjusting everything, Key crank & the adjustment of the straps to achieve the most lift without the UCA's slamming into the droop stops anymore. I don't wanna lose any height for the sake of a better ride, just don't wanna be causing any damage to the frame. I thought I'd grab these for now since I'm gonna get the UCA's from Cognito when funds allow also.

Jack truck up and install straps before the arms hit droop stops.

Just wondering about the key crank in conjunction. Should I set the keys to where I have room between the stop then tighten the straps til they star taking some or all of the load?

The idea of straps is to prevent them from hitting stops. Set them before contact regardless of keys

The straps are a good idea, but your truck deserves a real lift in the front when you can swing it. Easy for me to say, since I have 2wd and just had to bolt on spindles. I totally understand the time and money constraints involved though. But having that travel down is important not just to the ride, but to going off-road and keeping the front tires in contact with the ground.

Your rig with 1" more height in the front and a good ride with plenty of available travel would be the bomb. Ok now I'll stop spending other people's money!

In due time. This is my first time doing suspension upgrades to a vehicle other than small things. I was always under the hood on other vehicles.

But a true 6" is in the plans just wanted to be as tall as possible in the time being to set myself apart from the rest of the grocery getter lookin' Hoe's out there!
