Gonna get the rancho quicklift leveling shocks for my f150 does anyone know if this is something that I can do myself? What is a good price does anyone know?

 

I just got mine for christmas, the reason i got them was so i could install myself, as i don't need a spring compressor to re-use the old coil. There's a video on youtube and it looks pretty easy, I'd post a link to the video but I'm on a school computer and its blocked. I bought mine from my4by.com, $162 a piece, 4wheelparts.com has them for $199, so obviously i went for the cheaper place, here's a link, it's the one for a 04-08 4x4 which I'm assuming you have.

Spring compressor's are easy to use if you have a good air supply and a good impact gun.....did mine and took 45 min a side to do.

 

So you don't have to compress the old springs to get the strut off?

 

I did my level kit with no Spring compressor

 

Here's the video:
I was looking at them for my truck as well. Any level is pretty easy, especially for Fords, but this looks stupidly simple.

 

and there's the key...lol
I have a compressor and an impact gun, not sure it it would be able to do all that, plus dealing with renting a spring compressor, you have to pay them the full cost to rent it.

 

Its reel easy to instal but be careful with the rental compressors when I put my bilstiens on the compressor failed I ended up with a broken wrist and hand.

 

Autozone 50 bucks,get it back when you return it!

 

I used the Quick lift loaded struts, my son and I installed them in under 2 hours. We had a compressor and impact gun. After the lift I had 315/70/17 BFG all terrains on 17 x 8.5 Method wheels 0 offset, with a very minor rub on the rear plastic fender liner when backing up at full lock. I purchased them from Truckcustomizers.com.
