    Hey guys, I just purchased an eibach pro truck lift kit and a wheelers AAL and was wondering if there will be any mod days upcoming or if anyone would be interested in helping me out with an install? I don't have tools or a place to do the work but would be happy to bring pizza and beer.

    I am in Sunnyvale/San Jose area but open to making a drive. Let me know if we can work something out!

    Thanks!

    - Dustin

    From the research I have done, 2” of lift on lowest setting, works with stock ucas, ride is comparable to the popular OME/5100 lift.

    You can always use pit row in Santa Clara.
    They have lifts and all the tools you’d need.
    Depending on the day I may be able to swing by and help.

    Are the coilovers assembled? If so, we could knock it out in my garage this weekend. If not, I don't have a spring compressor and won't mess with the parts store loaners.

    I may have tweaked a few things...
    O’Reilly’s loaner compressors are more stout than most. I recently used them to mount Toytec #620 to 5100s with no issues and i’m not as handy as many of the folks here.

    I Should have the kit in by mid next week and hopefully the following weekend we can figure something out. The coils are not assembled so would love some help with that. Sounds like Eric can help me out with the rest! Thanks guys

    A mod day does sound nice, just saying. I always have something to do on my rig.

    You can have the coils assembled at any shop that does suspension of any kind. It’ll cost some dollars but it’ll be worth it.

    Update back when you figure out the day. It's been a while since I did mine, but I'll swing by and offer a hand or some tools.
