    For front suspension work you'll want the truck on jack stands with the wheels removed. I used that video that's floating around of a guy swapping coilover assemblies on a 2nd gen. Just go slow and be alert, it was my first time and it went fairly smooth. I used a bottle jack between the UCA and wheel well to get the droop that I needed

    On a side note, I had a lot of trouble reconnecting the passenger side steering knuckle and LBJ assembly. Ended up having to use another floor jack to compress the LCA enough to get it to line up. No idea why it only happened on one side...just putting it out there in case you run into something similar. Good luck!
