I took off my lift and put the factory arms back on and torqued them to the other lift kits bolt spec but i have a knocking around sound coming from the frint end and looks like one of the bolts is moving around anyone have the torque spec for me?

cool thank you

No problem.

I re-read that page and the lower arm with the cam adjusting bolt should be tightened down to 160 ft-lbs. So...

Upper Arm: 120 ft-lbs
Lower Arm: 160 ft-lbs

PS - I recently uninstalled my 4" lift kit also. Truck rides smoother, handles better, and getting better mpg probably due to combination of being lower to ground and smaller tires.

what lift did you have? i went from a 6 inch tuff country coil spacer to a 3 inch kore suspension, thank you very much for the specs tho i def did not tighten them enough

Tighten down as tight as possible. Same goes for the trac bar. If they are not. Then you will get a popping or binding noise.

I had the 4" superlift. Nice kit ... just changed the use of my truck. When I bought the truck new it was my daily driver. Now its just a tow / weekend vehicle and lift kits with huge tires don't do well towing! Even went so far to convert it to a dually setup. I know, I should have just bought another truck. But I prefer the older 5.9 over the new 6.7 and I didn't want to buy used. Plus since I purchased my truck new I know no one ... accept for myself ... beat on it! LOL!!!

Make sure the pitman arm nut is tightened to spec!!! Mine ended up losening up after a few miles when I first installed my kit.
