So now 20mm below factory but 20mm up from the kings. Time to figure out height of rear and get the leafs out and reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should take all of 2 minutes.Mofo.New mission, remove all 4 lock nuts without a functioning lock nut key. Remembered the tip I've read on here any times before, bashing on sockets! 22mm was too tight...7/8" socket was perfect. After 5 minutes of trying to pry the thing back out of the socket to get the other 3, I had a rethink and remembered sockets have a hole through them Grab a bigger deep socket to brace it against and for the nut to fall into loosely (a tip I worked out after the first go with a 22mm deep socket that got stuck on it...doofus)Now I know why I didn't throw out my broken $2 ratchet. Re-purposed as a ram rod! Also decided to place some metal underneath after digging a chunk out of the concrete floor on my first go at it.I'm glad to be rid of the lock nuts. They are piss easy for thieves to remove and can only stop me from changing a wheel in the rain on the way to a wedding or something.
