Its really a simple installation if you have average mechanical skills.
Only place you really need help is after the install when you need an alignment..

Check this out. It'll give you an idea of the difficulty (or simplicity) involved.

thanks and i thought yours was nice btw in my sig that is a 2.5/6drop i just took out the lifting hangers but it made the ride too soft so i should be getting my eibach 2" drop shackles in any day now to get it back down that low but a way stiffer ride then stock so i dont bottom out on pebbles
