installation was done by me and only me, probably about 12 hrs total, in my driveway and that is with fabbing my own shock an sway bar brackets and track bar location

this is how high i had to get it to get the springs and spacers in....

with the help of the rear shock extentions, and modified front shock towers, i was able to use the stock skocks, at their stock ride location, i also kept the stock pitman arm and upper track bar mount, with relocating the lower track bar mount, combined with the progressive rate coils and the long arm kit, this thing steers as good as it did new, and rides even better


all done sittin on 37 x 13.50 x 18 toyo m/t's and 18 x 10 moto metals, but still needs a bath

Very nice! But the back end does look a little low
