Front prop shaft to diff torque was created by Soeley
Just fitting my lift to the front of my Gen4. Looks like I will have to undo the 4 bolts joining the prop shaft to front diff, or I could remove the front cross member that bolts in. This is to allow extra axle droop to get the new springs in.
Anyone know the torque settings for these items? I have looked at the online manual with pictures so need some clarification.
I have the prop to diff down as 37 lbs-ft.

I decided on lowering the cross member in the end.

37 ft/lb or 50NM for Propshaft bolts
(And I went the Spring Compressor route as the Sensor wires got too tight.)

Cheers Martin, I used compressors but only lightly as I undid the brackets for the sensor wires, that gave a lot more slack in them.
Did you find your vacuum pipes were a bit tight though after the lift?
