You should make a complete DIY. No one makes DIYs anymore. You have all the pics

Would that be just a step by step of installing my lift? Where would I post that? That's definitely something I would do! Especially since it was my first big project on my truck!

Perhaps it's just the way they're sitting on the tailgate but the spring on the right looks shorter than the spring on the left....

for the record, i have v10 springs, and only gain 2" of lift, diesel coils will net you about 2.5-3 depending on how worn the springs are.

It is shorter, I don't know why but I got equal lift on both sides.

On the 5+" springs one is labeled specifically for the passenger side. Maybe I missed it but perhaps the 3" also?


Any DIY is a good thing. In this case, remove springs, install springs, go play!

Good of you to list links to your exact parts for ppl.
