Hey guys
New guy here, looking for some help. Going to replace upper control arms, and was wondering if i need to unload the torsion bars first. And if so do i just need to lower them down. Also how hard is it to replace lower ball joints with the lower control arm still on the truck.
 
Support the truck by the lower control arms, remove the steering knuckle from the truck.

Remove your upper control arms and replace them with the new ones, install camber/caster eccentrics on the upper control arm bolts.

To remove the lower balljoints, remove the snaprings that retain them, rent a balljoint press and press them out and the new ones in.

Reassemble and take it in for an alignment.
