1.75" Spacers
Well I think I might be getting some coil spacers from santy clause.
But he wants to know how easy they are to install. I can't imagine them being tough to do..? We have access to a lift so i'm guessing that will help? But what needs to be done to install them?
Thanks!!

YOu can do all 4 in under 2 hours.. It's a Cake walk. And i'd say try to find some 2" if your going to do them. And than you can clear 31"s with out much problem at all...

1)Undo the shocks - u can just do this at the top and slide them down and out of the way
2)Undo the swaybar links
3)Jack up the frame a little and place a jack stand there.
4)use a coil spring compressor from autozone to remove the coil spring -(you actually want to ask for a strut spring compressor cause that's what they have it listed as...)
5)Slide in the new spacer
6)Replace the coil spring
7) Repeat to other side
8)Reconnect and tighten everything back up
9)Repeat same steps to the rear
10)Admire your work and take some pictures
11)Post pictures on here for us to complement
12)Get it Aligned.
13)Test out that new lift!
If I left anything out please feel free to chime in as I'm just trying to remember the steps off the top of my head.

It'll be fine. I ran mine for over a year with the 2.25" BB and 31's. And I'd say it road just like stock with a little better feel in the corners..
