Correct! That would be the best thing to do. But he mentioned above that he did torque everything down to specs. If by chance the bar didn't torque down to 90ft lbs its possible that it wont compress the mounting bracket for the torque arm. If it is our bar please feel free to give me a call and I will be more than glad to help.
Thanks

Well it can't be the ph because I put four rubber spacers between the rod ends and the mounting bracket it ain't moven unless something is rattaling in side the bar it's not the ph. How would I know if my springs were bad other than tryn to move them or obvious sag in the body cuz evry thing appears good??

Hello
Like I mentioned above. The downfall with a rod end is they do offer a little solid ride quality...but if you are looking for something that will allow the vehicle to hock then they are the real deal. A rod end will make noise when it is warn out. Even though it looks ok its still possible. But other than that if you are looking for a quieter ride quality then the roto are the way to go for sure. As long as they are properly greased they will last for quite awhile. If you have any other questions feel free to ask.
Thanks
