I've searched this forum thoroughly as well as researched quite a bit but I still had a question I was hoping to get answered. I plan on ordering the HBS leveling kit for my 2010 4x4 SCREW here in the next week or so and I'd like to do the install myself.

All I have basic set of hand-tools, no air tools or anything. I can come with another jack from a friend, but other than that, are there any specific or special tools I'll need? Anything specifically to torque the new parts down? I have a general knowledge of working with my tools so I'd like the opportunity to do this install myself, but I don't want to risk the safety of myself and the truck if its too difficult.

Any pictures to assist in explaining difficult or unclear instructions would be appreciated as well.

I appreciate the insight and help, thanks.

 

Go on YouTube and look for an install video. Daystar has a good one.

 

It would help to have an impact gun or a long piece of pipe to put on your ratchet for a breaker bar. That bottom strut bolt is a biotch.

 

Your gonna need a good pry bar and a good bresker bar just did mine yesterday znd had to go get one that bottom strut bolt is really on there

 

And a case of your favorite beverage

 

I didn't use air tools. Just a breaker bar and then a torque wrench

 

I also have a 2010 Screw, however I did mine the day after I bought it, so the bolts came off fairly easy. The most important thing is go slow and follow directions and torque specs exactly. There is no short cut accept to the hospital emergency room.
