I think Im just gonna cut and drill. Seems like its the easiest way to me. I know I got a long way to go but I guess on the bright side I got one side of the lift installed.

 

Well, after 4 long days of bs. I can finally say that the rear end is finally lifted... Now onto the front end...

 

Yay almost to the good part!

 

Should have done the front first. :P

You now need a 4x4 on top of your jack and some extra tall jack stands. lol

 

Have fun with the coils. They were the hard part for me

 

The coils were the easiest for me! Leafs are a nightmare!

 

Im going to pretend I didnt hear that and think that the front will be easy.

 

The coils are easy as long as you have a spring compressor. The control arm bolts are where I ran into more cutting.

 

Even with a compressor I FOUGHT my coils...then again I didnt remove the trac bar. I just took off sway links and shocks...jacked up one side compressed the ish out of the spring and rammed it in with a pry bar. Not fun.

 

So I tried putting that brake line extension on the rear tonight and I failed miserably. Well not a complete fail, but close to it. I got everything hooked up and wouldnt you know it leaks out of the top of the nut that the brake line connects to. And on top of that I got brake fluid in my eye. And let me tell you this, that really freaking hurts. So I stopped there for the night.

 

make sure to rinse it all out... can make you loose/damage eye sight...

 

I didn't read it all but you can get a cut off wheel in and cut off the front leaf spring bolt and then pry the leaf spring outa there.

 

already got it out... but please, please don't ever cut that bolt until it's backed all the way out of the nut. then you'll find yourself forced to cut into the unibody.

 

The rear is already done except for the new brake line. I installed it and now its got a leak at the top of the nut that keeps it on.

 

What?
