Walk thru of spindle installment

I am pretty sure this is the same that applies for 2nd gen 2wd guys looking to lift the front end. Let me know if any thing is different those of you running this set up, I am going to do this if its the same for our vehicles.

Yes the procedure would be the same on an explorer.

thanks...any new parts needed like brake lines, or specialized tools??? doesnt seem to be though...

 

[techieman33]

a 32mm, or 1 1/4 socket for the cv axle nut. All the other tools should be in any decent tool set.

sweet I got all the tool needed im sure. Just didnt know if anything because of ball joints, i never messed with those

 

[diego]

Will this work??

It should, I would make sure you won't need more parts for it before you buy it though, I'm not familiar with camburgs stuff.

Alright im to not sure I will, looks like I could just bolt it on pretty much and go get a new alignment. But I better check to be safe

Turn your wheels after it is finished and be sure the brake lines don't pull tight. You should be fine. Also, I am not sure the 32mm nut will work since that is for 4x4 and you are looking at a 2wd.

Grab that Camburg kit!

Oh wow, your right Daniel, Guess that isn't needed. Not sure what you'll need for the bearings.

Yeah I tried calling the guy to see if he still had it but I keep getting all circuits busy guy over and over. Its an amazing deal it sells for over 1300 new

Yeah I am running 2wd and over all seems like it will be a pretty easy job except for all the dirt grime and rust that are probably hold those bolts on...guess I will find out lol
