That's what happens when you remove the torsion bars and have jack stands under the a-arms. OOOps

Me too. Got out from under the truck and realized what I'd done. Liked the look and snapped a couple pictures then fixed it. The half shafts were not liking it AT ALL. Its a wonder it didn't push the tire through the wheel wells.

Nope sitting on the stands. I have the Kent Moore key tool. The whole time I was reliving the pressure on the keys I was like wtf these things have a lot of tension on them.
