it's realy a straight forwrad deal. verry simple. the only problem i had was getting a wrench on the driver side rear shock. need the right lenght socket. remember to hold the shock nut from the bottom so you can loosen the top, or else youl'll just be spining the bolt & not loosening anything.

best tip that helped me: have rear shocks in "compressed" position (I had mine banded) during install. Line 'em with the holes, cut the bands and up it went into position
