Talking Help installing Lift

Hello everyone so i finally got a lift kit, the 2.5 inch coil lift by Teraflex by popular write ups. i am totallly useless with mechanical things guess i should have played with Meccano as a kid. .

I did have an offer from a member to install this for me but he has not signed on for over a week

the details of the lift can be found here.
https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-write-ups-39/notes-teraflex-2-5%94-spring-lift-51483/ things get interesting on page 12 of this thread. seems pretty basic though.

i am in Laguna Beach 92651 twice a week on a Tuesday and Thursday.
I have Saturdays and Sundays off aswell unless i go wheeling
i am also willing to drive as far north as Bakersfield for help with this.

i got a quote from 4 wheel p+rts they want $416 total price with an alignment.

but would like to save some money for other mods

if you can help please respond

as for tools i have a socket set

Thanks

Rob.

thanks toad i can't wait to get another 3inches up front
