Canuck motorsports out of canada they are also the same as springtech which is out of California, the reason it took so long is because they were trying to ship it out of Cali and they were changing warehouses(at least that is what they said) but ended up shipping from Canada and took less than 2 days with express shipping. they paid the express becuase it took 2 weeks before they even shipped it.

I put lift coils in my truck and did the drivers side first. What a pain in the a$$. Then after some deliberation my dad decided to take the top ball joint loose instead of the bottom one like they said in the instructions and made it so easy. Passenger side took a 1/3 of the time the drivers side did.

finshed up the other side, much quicker the longest part was sitting with an impact compressing and decompressing the spring,

Took it out to a fire to unload the wood that I had in the bed so i could do the shackles tomarrow, went to make sure they had the tires I wanted in stock and they didnt but will have them monday, so I will stop by and pick them up monday.

Ok got some pics of the truck after the lift makes a difference and when I was cleaning it earlier I noticed that I cant reach the middle of the windsheild anymore.

Going to pick up tires on monday and hopefully by wednesday I will be able to get them mounted and on the truck

yea the bike is dirty that was after taking it for a ride, it really shines when its got tire shine all over, and im happy with the lift just needs an alignment took what was already noticeable even more.

Was surprized by how well it handles after the lift, was thinking with the lift it was going to be way stiffer and pound ya off-road but so far so good and I still have the stock size shocks
