I thought you had to jack the motor up a few inches to install. Will that allow you to do that? Damn engine bay is soo tight.

Good luck with the install, it me and a friend about 7hrs or so....Results are awesome!!
|
understand. I just hate to think of that install from the ground, ie:no lift. I have a set of SLP that came with my kit but have yet to tackle. The guy who is going to do my gear, rear, axle install said he'd do it all in the same day. I'd like to save the $ and do that part myself. I have not talked to anyone who has really done it, just what i've read and have seen under my own car.
|
Funny thing is I have a friend with a lift and he told me I could use it for however long I need it. I opted to install them in my own garage. No time limit and I can work on it when I want to.
