FINISHED THE "MY" LIFT!!! install pics and instructions

So you attempted to take the whole strut out and it would not come loose? What method/process did you follow?

 

The OP mentioned it was a block of wood, not a brick. But yeah, the wood should be under the jackstand to avoid damaging the pavement. I didn't use it when I installed my lift, and the jackstands dug grooves into my driveway. See lower left corner of photo:

 

ecgs bushing and c/v re-boot. i guess this info is somewhat relevant. at least it was to me.

yea a block of wood on top of the stands wasn't the best idea, but all i had lying around. i dont recommend doing it that way at all.
