For those of you that installed the Readylift with the Bilstein. I have a question. The Readylift 3.5 69-1935 SST kit states that the front lower strut hardware should be torqued to 150 ft-lbs and the rear lower shock hardware to 45 ft-lbs. The Ram factory specs state 125ft-lbs for the front lower strut hardware and 85 ft-lbs for the rear lower shock hardware. Which specs did you all follow? I emailed Readylift and they responded as follows
"You can use the factory torque specs as they seem to be better than what we are recommending. You wouldnt have an issue in either case but the closer to factory torque the better."
