1. This kit is not just a walk in the park to install. I had a retired mechanic walk me through most of everything, and you will have to be prepared for ball joints that won’t come undone no matter how big of a hammer or fork you have. If you don’t know what your doing, that spring is no joke. Be careful when you are putting that part back together. We did not have any problems, but we took every precaution possible for that part. Don’t be afraid to tie the spring to upper control arm. Better safe than sorry. Overall, the install took roughly 12 hours for us over a 2 day span.
2. When you go to get an Alignment afterwards, you will not be able to fully align the vehicle. You max out their adjustment with the extra height in the springs, but mine drives like it always has. It stays straight (no bad wear on tires too) and slightly goes to the right after awhile. Overall, it’s an old truck and honestly, it drives better than it ever has for me with new suspension parts.
3. The back part of the truck was the easiest, but it could have been easier. My axle was pointed forward a little. Therefore, the blocks were half an inch from the point. An easy fix is to use a come-along. Chaining the axle to the frame then crank it back however much is needed.
The lift is great! I would recommend it to anyone. Also, the 3inch lift rough country lift is not much different because it doesn’t involve the springs and it would be easier! Old Before pic with my friends boat attached and new pic shown.

I did the rear blocks first, they taper, one end is bigger than the other; it's not much but it's enough where the truck will vibrate when you come to a stop if you do it wrong. Put the BIGGER end towards the BACK.
The front end is pretty self explanatory so I'll give tips instead of the whole install:
-Rent a spring compressor from Pep Boys, it's free, you just pay for it and then return it; doesn't cost a thing. It'll come in handy even though it's a little bit of a pain to get it inside and line it up.
-Find a good pry bar before hand to put over your socket wrench to get good leverage and get some gloves. It's tight in that space and almost every bolt was difficult to get off.
-Rent/Buy a pickle fork, make sure it's wide enough to fit around the whole grommet on the upper and lower control arm or you will cut the grease pocket, you might anyway and it's just kind of unavoidable.
-I would loosen the bottom control arm first. My driver side was such a pain to get off, my dad and I are not small guys and it took us a good hour of prying and hitting to get the spindle off. The passenger side we loosened the lower first and the top slipped out without us even realizing at first lol.
-My hub came off with the 3 bolts behind it but I've heard it can get stuck and be difficult.
-Everything lines up easily, I could flip the brake line bracket, you'll see what I mean, there are new mounting holes for it on the back side of the new spindle. I just didn't want to break the brake line.
Make sure you compress the brake caliper pistons, the part that pushes on the pads, before you reinstall them. I used a C-clamp and a 6" piece of metal and you just simply push them back in as far as they go. I'm no novice to working on vehicles but I had let that part slip my mind since I hadn't changed any brake pads in a while.
I adjusted the tie rod ends on mine to make it actually driveable, there are tons of videos to help align them but I eye balled it since my alignment shop is so close. You simply loosen the nut and adjust them in or out depending on what you need the tires to do.
So far this is a great kit and myself and my dad thought it rode better than stock. It took me most the weekend but I took my time and did a little maintenance while I was down there. I'll be adding some pictures here pretty soon.
