Hey if you still have my number, I'll talk you through! It is an easy install. I would recommend taking the dust covers off the struts.

I am pretty sure Al and others say those dust covers run on the shock body squeak like crazy

not 100% sure though :?

Is THAT what was squeaking all day yesterday? And here I thought it was the new poly sway-bar bushings (even thought about disco'ing it but wasn't on anything that serious). Eh, either way, I can live with it... just glad to be rid of the bad ball joint rattle.

WOW this post came back from the dead :shock:

the kit is already broken in & I didn't put the covers on, the shop that installed it agreed it would noise & what not they told me I'd be fine without it they do alot of lifts & never put the plastic covers on & have never had a problem
