    I just started working full time after working part time and being in school for about 9 years - the last 6 of which I've been living with a family from church - all I want is an inexpensive tiny apartment with a decent garage to keep tools and a place to keep my truck on big multi day projects - bring on the roaches, I want my workshop! Even what I have now is great, a water heater / unused laundry closet. I'm grateful to have that!

    Mine was about $800 but you can get different ones for less.

    Make sure to give an update. I need some more insight on the 881s with a 2.7L.

    It kicks ass to be sure. It takes longer to align the pins to get the spring centered than it does to actually do the work.

    Wish I had one, those are the only type that are truly safe to use. But I don't rebuild my shocks often enough to justify it... Yet haha

    Good deal. I think that’s wise. FWIW I’m not using the top spacers. Well, I have a 1/4” on the driver side to combat lean. If they end up giving you too much, they’ll be easy to remove. Your cv boots will tell you what you need to know. Haha. Looking forward to seeing it.

    Get the rest of the tools in your kit and start rebuilding them on the side, easy to do and you can make pretty good loot as a side gig.

    Do you already have pre-lift hub-to-fender measurements? It's be a great reference to figure out how much lift you gained. It's one thing I regret not thinking of when I did my lift.

    no i dont. good call. i really need to remove and reattach my fender flares. I dont believe they are stock. They were on the truck when i bought it, as were the rain gards and hood bug deflector thingy.

    Speaking of which i dont even know HOW they are attached
