    3" ToyTec coilover lift on Bilstein 5100s, Total Chaos UCAs, ToyTec diff drop, Scangauge II, 4D MagLite mounted on the drivers seat, Painted engine cover, Painted calipers (red), Painted skid plate (red) Valentine 1 radar detector hard wired, Damplifier Pro on the floor, back wall and doors, Luxury Liner Pro on the floor and doors, Kenwood DNX8120, 2 Pioneer TS-SW1041D 10" shallow mount subs, 2 Pioneer PRS-D4200F 1200W amps, Mr Marv sub enclosure, Hybrid Audio Clarus 6.5" components in the front doors, Alpine 5.25" coaxials in the rear doors, A.R.E.

    He's lieing. I had no mechanical experience and it took me and my buddy (also no experience) 8 hours to replace my front coilovers and UCAs in my parking garage without fancy "mechanics" tools. Just jacked it up, socket set, etc... No impact wrench, no big, high lift - nothing. And we goofed off a bit too! :)

    He's taking advantage of you.

    both... on AND off road, upgraded shocks will ride better. aftermarket UCA will be able to get the alignment within factory spec. I think you'll also get an extra 1" of downtravel with TC UCAs, but that would have to be confirmed...
