lower control arm/ torsion bag question

ok, clipped my ranger with a toyota frame in the front.

now i'm getting to the bagging process.

my question is, do you have to take anything out of the lower control arm pivot point on the frame or do you just leave it all stock?

with no weight on the truck the spindle wants to go back down when you pull it up (not from the weight, but like there is tension forcing it down)

do you guys just leave it like that or replace it with a bolt or what?

Thats the bushing wanting to pull it back down. When I put new bushings in I could pull the suspension up and it would stay there if the spindle wasnt in place.

Im having that same problem on my ranger too. Where can you get new bushings for the yota clip?

any autoparts shop should be able to get them, just make sure you order for that year Toyota. They are just a stock part and would only need a stock replacement.

Energy suspension makes everything for them just about. Summit carries them.

Thats what I paid for mine. Factory rubbers are more expensive.
