    Correct. That will get you 2" of lift from stock. You'll still need to make up the other 1" with blocks or springs if you want to keep 3" over stock lift.

    Yes they'll work with any spring packs that will work with the stock hanger.

    What's the estimated install time on this kit? Would bring something like this to my mechanic, just wondering what it would run me

    Takes me 3hrs. For an experienced mechanic who hasn't done one before, maybe 5hrs.

    1/2" grade 8. Length not sure, but you're just going through the frame and the mount.

    The install should be able to be done in 2-3 hours usually, assuming they have the right tools to do the job. (air hammer and torch or plasma make it easiest.)

    The hardware is 1/2 x 1.5 grade 8 bolts with washers, lock washers and nuts.
