Don't pay someone, just follow these directions. I am assuming you will be installing new bushings too. BE CAREFUL!<br>Tools: 2 jack stands, 1 jack (at least), and a socket set.<br><br>Procedure: Break the lugs on your wheels. Jack up the vehicle and immediately put jack stands under each side of the frame about 4 inches inside of the radius arm brackets (never leave it supported by only the jack--they can break). Remove the wheels/tires. Then I usually put the jack under the pumpkin and "droop" the suspension. Using 1/2", 5/8", and 9/16" sockets, take off the two bolts holding the tops of the coils in place. Then take the two bolts from inside the coil at the bottom (it's kind of tricky to get a thick socket through there, but work with it or wind it from the top). You should be able to slide the coil out by twisting and pulling it out. Then unbolt the shock and the 4 bolts on the radius are that are right under the coil spring. You might have to use a cheater pipe (long pipe to help gain torque) to break them. Then unbolt the other end of the radius arm right under the rocker panel. Put in the supplied bushings and then just go in reverse to reinstall. The bushings might be hard to compress to put the radius arms back on, but keep trying. For the rear, jack it up and jack stand it and then remove tires. Then support the axle under the pumpkin. Use a 13/16" (I think) socket to break the u-bolt nuts. Leave the middle bolt in the leaf springs -- it holds the leaves together. Then unbolt the shackle and hanger bolts (also tough to break sometimes) and remove the leaf springs. If replacing whole spring, repeat steps in reverse; if adding a leaf, unbolt that middle bolt, add the leaf into the pack, and re-bolt the new middle bolt that the kit should provide.<br><br>Tips: Do one side at a time so if you get confused you can use the other side for reference. Lube up all the aforementioned bolts the night before you perform this...it will make them easier to beak. Lube up the bushings so they don't squeak. Block off a weekend to do it, and take your time. It really is easy even though I took a long time to explain it ;D Good luck.
