So i noticed that my Centerlink, and pitman and idler arm braces were bent. I went to Alligator and Chad helped me out with A PPE centerlink and braces. I also got spring clamps from another DP member, and Calvert Tracion Bars for the rear. How long should this install take me with a truck lift, and me and a fairly knowledgable buddy? Is there any tricks that would help me out? And how long of a process is this? Thanks.

I did the centerlink and tire rods sleeves. Make sure you have a pickle fork or some other tool that will work to get the ball joints out without hurting them. Shouldn't take too long just get it aligned after you are done.

If anyone has any pictures of anything related, it would be highly appreciated.

I did't take any pictures but, it took me between 3 and 4 hours. The hardest part is getting the pitman and idler arm off. I broke the puller that came with the PPE centerlink.
