    Besides I was getting killed on insurance. With the Taco it's a bit better and I just turned 21 this September which helped too. Clean record but two vehicles was a bit much for everything. Only had the Jeep 6 months but I put 18,000 miles on it.

    That would be awesome! I should have most of the tools and I have a garage. Not a heated garage though and I gotta swap springs which might be a challenge

    Yes depends on how long they've been on the truck and how much rust you have! Or what's left of the steel! Ha

    Yup! Just fronts to help level the rear. I guess we should pick a time and place?! I'm free pretty much every weekend

    I saw that video! Looks simple enough. I'd need help I think since I basically can't use my left arm haha. But I've installed coil overs on my car and it was pretty simple. I think I could do it myself if I was healthy

    I'm not doing the front struts with out a press! You can google the video that shows compressing and decompressing front coils. They take a floor jack under the lower control arm just below the location of the loop of the strut. Jack stands in place, jack the lower control arm up compressing the spring unbolt the nut on the top of the strut. Slowly release the jack down. It looks completely doable. I've not done it yet! My buddies who work in dealerships and own shops say it's dangerous and for me not to do it. Good luck and I'm not telling you to do it this way!
