I think the shop used an impact wrench to put it back together after doing the front half of my lift. The rust holding it together must've gave way. :shock: So the new part is like $70 bucks. Not bad. BUT the bolt that tightens it is a different size than the old bolt (for an 03 anyway). If anyone has to order a new clevis be sure they order this bolt too. It is does not come with the arm.

I used an impact driver when I did my lift and no problems.

I had a friend helping me with my lift and he cracked the clevis in half overtightening it. I was able to use the old bolt with the new clevis and I have an 03. Maybe they changed it since last fall.
