I tried, I just couldn't get the bolts to move at all. The underside of my truck is a lot of rust, and bad angles to put a cheater bar on there. Luckily the bushings were easy, PB blaster was my friend.

I suggest going to somewhere that gives you a warranty on the alignment. I took mine to Tire Kingdom and their basic alignment ($105 after tax) comes with a 6 month/6,000 mile warranty. I've already had it aligned 3 times, because of the bushing changes haha and I'm going back again next week because I want the print out of the specs of it to compare to before I levelled

Yes. It's the nature of the beast with these I-beams. 2-2.5inches lift and adjustable camber bushings and you'll be set to go.

Well and longer shocks too if you value ride quality
