The other side was a breeze...looks good! hopefully alignment and tires tommorw

Tackling this Saturday...what size bottle jack did you guys use. Have to stop by China Freight to pick one up. Never had a bottle jack and have no clue if they even come in different sizes. Always have bottles of Jack ready, reg, Gentleman and one bottle of Single Barrel that I been saving for a special occasion.

Anyone have info on what size bottle jack and where exactly to place it in the LCA and Strut mount? Would love to see a picture of this... I was trying to install my AS today but didn't see the bottle jack method until now...gave up and found this thread...
Any help would be appreciated.

I did mine on a lift and removed the front LCA arm bolt and had a buddy use a giant pry bar to swing the control arm down, went right in. I'm not sure if this is possible as I had the suspension components at eye level. Never heard of the bottle jack method until this thread either but like I said I have access to a lift. Good luck, hope you get in installed without to much of a headache.
