They only took about 2 hours each because I'm so particular about how things are to be when I put parts back together. I made sure to put antisieze on all of the bolts and everything.
For the money the lift with a spacer and cranking the tortion bars is a simple way to go and you don't mess with much.
After talking to a lot of folks about different options I decided I like the stock ride just not the ride height. I didn't think that OME springs are the best option for reasons discussed with other owners that have used the springs. I know that this is a preference deal, and have lifted other vehicles in the past. My expereince is that when you mess with one part you better be ready to mess with others. I wanted to keep this to a minimum for now. A spacer is a simple addition and simple to take out if I want in the future. If I want to lift with new springs I will talk to a shop that made springs for my other Money pit car and have the spring Pysically taller than the stock spring so when wheeling the spring stays in place.
For the bucks it is easy and looks the same as others that paid more. Now I have the bucks for other parts that I plan to add. The spacer is for a Dodge ram 94-11 truck and fits the spring nicely. You can pick these up for about 60-70 bucks. best lift for 70 bucks and rides just fine.
