[QUOTE="Jeffksf B, post: 1023185, member: 65145"] Got it done tonight 2.5 hrs. Not to bad at all. A couple tips. I had to pull the bolt out at the forward lower link attaches to the main swing arm to allow the lower knuckle to swing out of the control arm. Also pay attention to how the upper shock mount aligns with the lower shock mounting bushing because once you have it in there you cant stick a screw driver in the lower shock mount and twist it to align it with the mounting holes in the control arm. It has to be assembled in alignment so the 3 upper bolts drop in their holes and the lower shock mount lines up with it's holes. I also installed the moog end links even thought the stock ones came apart easily. [/QUOTE]
