Default rusty's 2 inch coil basic

Just installed the kit and so far so good. the ride is slightly more stiff than factory but its not bad. I did get an esp bas light. Hopefully the alignment monday will take care of that once the steering wheel is realigned. the install took just over 2 1/2 hours with the help of my buddy who had done his the week earlier. by the way we followed all the instructions with the exception of disconnecting the track bars for front and back. no troubles what so ever!

No disco for the trk bars, you will have to disco the swaybar links and shocks to get new springs in.

not so. we did disconnect the sway bar links but disconnecting the track bars isn't necessary. we did use a coil spring compressor that i rented from o'riley's but only used it on one of the front springs. the other side i just muscled it in.
