BTW, there's lots of room for getting a wrench on the D-side. The Gen 2 guys claim it a tight fit getting the 3 nuts off their buckets.... must be all the turbo stuff getting in the way, it's not an issue on a Gen 1truck.View attachment 474199

only the passenger side is a little rough because the battery tray and turbo inlet piping.. the driver side is a breeze

I guess its youtubers who leased a Gen 2 and break a nail trying to work on them?

I've been delayed on the project for a couple days: the dog dug out under the chain link and it ended up in a very ugly fight with 2 of the neighbor's dogs.. Mine is a 5yo Husky male, the neighbor's are an adult male Doberman & a female Boxer. Luckily, the neighbor's and I have always worked out things in the past, and none of the 3 needed to be hospitalized.. But, the bottom fence line now has a pallet of concrete blocks to prevent another incident

The D-side shock bucket is finally cleaned up & ready to weld. I had to grind down the bottom section & drill out the rear UCA hole to 3/4" in order to align with the factory hole. Because Raptor. The shank length isn't correct. Because KHC. But, my local off-road hardware shop will have the correct length on the shelf tomorrow, so I can proceed for now.
