Smile 6" lift and 37 installed

Well guys it took 3 days of non stop wrench turning but its all installed and couldnt be happier.. I installed a super lift 6" kit and 37" pro comp A/T X on 18" XD monster blacks. Let me just say that this was one of the most challenging things i have ever undertaken and required about 5 trips to NAPA and a couple calls to the local shop. The instructions from the kit were a little vague but nothing a haynes manual couldnt have taken care of. well let me break down to you some of my frustration moments you can veer away from the directions from time to time because there are short cuts and alot of the times it was one step foward 2 steps back. the ball joints were this and so were the struts i broke down and ended up buying new ones after no success at getting the nut off the strut. The back went really easy although i did not need to take off the leaf spring back just a little help from a hammer and a keen eye was all it took to work the bolt up through. i know this is a little vague but im sure itll help and if you guys need any walk throughs on what went on over the last 4 days id be glad to give you my two sense. I wouldnt suggest everyone but on this kit in there drive way it took me and my friend 3 12 hour days wrenching in his dads garage and we had every tool at our disposal and in about 4 different sets including welders, plasma cutters, tourchs, and various jacks. other than that guys i will get some pics up and i took a couple pics through out the break down so maybe they will be some help but the truck is 10" taller and going in for an alignment tomorrow..
