I forgot to mention you also need to remove the metal stand for the bumpstop on the lower control arms or that will bottom out. If I remember it's only 3 small rivets on each that you can either drill out or grind off.

for some reason the pass side front sits higher then the driver side and i do think i need to take off a 1/2 coil or so off the front spring so it sits level
