spoken like the knight on monty python's search for the holy grail (the bridge crossing) oooohhh! That's Easy, step right up then.....

 

i did a lift one time on a buddies truck and the nearest spring compressor was hour away , so i used 2 heavy duty ratchet straps and compressed both sides equal ,,,,,easy , not the safest but in a pinch worked out great

 

Thanks Thunder, those are the ones Ive used before when putting lifts on my Jeeps. And yes, using only one is not really going to go to smooth with those. LOL.

And to rocket, I didnt say it would be easy, but I will attempt it. Why should I pay a shop when I could do it myself. I dont know about you, but I dont have money to waste on that. Plus, whatever happened to the pride of doing something yourself. Arent we into this "hobby" cuz we enjoy working on vehicles? Or do you just have everyone else do your work and then you look good driving someone elses work?

 

No I just draw a line like some guys here and there; When the job is too big for my driveway then I seek alternative methods I feel that its' borderline but that compression unit(s) seem like it can be a driveway deal. Don't get me wrong I just know my limits.

ps. I do most of my work btw.
ps ps. Can you honestly see me going to a shop and having them put in my Guttah grill lol or my shltter cai lol

 

Haha. that would be pretty bad having a shop throw in your homebrew CAI.
I know what you mean about drawing a line tho. There are a few things i wont go near. Diff gear change for example. dont have the right tools or precision for a job like that.
But, I think ill give this a shot and if I run into probs, then the shop is right down the block and Ill just bring the coil and struts to them.
BTW, thanks for recomending them to me in the first place.

 

or you could just come to my house and ill due it , lol unless that drive killed ya bro

 

Yea I know what your talking about. I have a guy that I take alot of my stuff to, mainly my fourwheelers and family stuff. Her jaguar is always breaking down and I CANNOT work on it. He hooks me up and on a deal that small it would cost like 10 bucks.

When doing my spacer install I tried to use the spring compressors. I couldnt evenly distribute the things causa the angle (you wont have that problem) but it just did a banana on me

 

keep us posted w/pix if possible those bilsteins are the bomb and a lifetime guarentee nice job.

 

Well, I ordred them yesterday and they are on backorder, so it might be awhile before I get them. But I will keep you posted. Thanks.
