Hello

2019 F 150 4X4

I removed the blocks on the rear axle two days ago and re- used the U bolts.

After some reading I’ve decided to go ahead and just get the 4X2 U bolts.

My question is;

I can’t find the torque specs for a 2019.

And should the wheel be off the ground when I torque?

If so, is it ok to put the jack on the axle? Or how should I lift the truck?

I'm pretty sure I’m overthinking this.

Thanks.

 

You are overthinking.

-Torque specs are 26, 60ish then 90. In a crossing pattern
-No need to lift the truck or axle. Just do one side at a time. Remove old ubolts and nuts. Replace with the shorter ones.

 

Thanks!

 

When you took out the spacer blocks which way was the tab facing?

 

What tab are you referring to?

I saw the tap you’re referring to but I didn’t notice it until after I took them out.

I just yanked them out and threw them out from under the truck.

Sorry.
