    Lift kit install done

    The only thing to consider is that you have to lift the body of the truck pretty high to get the springs under it. A forklift works really well for that but a set of really big blocks on a floor jack will work I was lucky everything unbolted easily.

    My driver door on one of my 1008s has the skin seperating from the rest of the door I found out when the door looked like it sagged a bit. I went to repin the hinges and found lifting up the door moved it back into position but letting the door go it want back to its original position.
