There were on back order, but got them shipped out even earlier then when they said. Great shipping awesome price. Installation, Easy.. Took the wheel off, took the three nuts off of the top of the strut and the big bolt that holds it to the lower arm at the bottom. Then dropped the upper ball joint so that the whole knuckle would fall. Went to the two bolts that hold the sway bar to the frame and losen those and the knuckle fell even more, shimmied the strut assembly right out. DONE i set my on the highest setting. Installation in reverse. Rears are easy, jack up the rear end and its two bolts. DONE. I was nervous about the first drive but everything checked out. The truck looks awesome and the ride is definately more firm which i love. It also helps visability at night. My low beams are much more effective then they were at stock height. Alignment stayed dead on but just to be sure i will be getting a alighnment done today. I am on stock tires. I have xds sitting in my garage waiting for tires when i decide on a size and brand. This is definately the right way to level a truck. The shocks make the biggest difference! Post pictures later
did the front shock on the highest setting level your truck? and did u add new blocks to the back when u put the rear shocks on
