After

Just installed a RE 4.5" superflex with 3.5" springs . Its a pretty good kit had good instructions and all most everything needed :!:


Thanks to BD&L importing for getting me the lift :wink:


Things that should be added to the kit

A huge box of bandaids

Earplugs for all the neighborhood kids to stop me from teaching them bad words

Now I just need

1 bleeder screw

Longer shocks

And adjust the rear pinion down to cure a minor vibration ( I hear it more than i feel it )



NOTE CHECK HEIGHT OF GARAGE DOOR BEFORE INSTALLING LIFT

Didn't happen to me but the neighbor had me woried for a couple of minutes

Now I just need time to get out and try it

For all those who laugh at this.....
