I just lifted my brothers new amigo last night. It took me 7-1/2 hours working by myself. I was having a hard time with the spring compressirs. It took me awhile but I got one spring and spacer in using the spring compressir. It took me forever to get that in. And after I got it in I couldn't spin the spring to "seat it" So I ended up taking the upper arms off on the diff side. and dropped the axle all the way to the floor. After I did that I was able to get the other spring/spacer in, in about 10min. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" />
I should of just did that to start with!!!
I installed OME 912's plus 2" coil spacers. We gained nearly 5" in the rear, and I lifted the front about 3.75". Theres a 2" rake from front to rear.
I also installed some rancho rs5000's that I had left over.
It was a pain to get the old shocks out. they were rusted.
I had to weld on a old crappy wrench to the shock shaft to keep it from turning <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />......And get this..I welded the wrench too low, I could not compress the shock to get it out on the passenger side <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" /> oops... I had to cut the lower "eye" off of the shock to get it out. Its kinda hard to explain. You have to compress the passenger side shock becuase of the track bar mount.
I had the same problem on the drivers side shock too. So I welded a wrench on that also. Theres no track bar mount on the drivers side so that was easy to get out.
It rides great!!!! you really can't even tell its lifted when you drive it.
