1) ubolts look that way because i havent trimmed them yet
2)its a full spring kit in the back audioholic. The only block being used is the stock one.
3)it took 14 hours because me, nor my father, have ever done a lift like this. Not only were we somewhat short on tools and running around to get them, stock parts arent easy to get off of a truck that hasnt been touched under there in 6 years //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif Lots of parts had to soak in pbblaster, and the pitman arm had to eventually be cut off (we were breaking pitman arm pullers trying to get it off). When i orderd the kit, they told me a shop can do it all in about 8 hours, so i dont think we did THAT bad for first timers.
you think 6 years is bad, my truck hadnt been touched in about 18 years so i know what you mean. Not to mention MW rust, man what a pain. The more projects like that you do the easier it will get, tool wise. My only suggestion is buy quality tools so you only buy them once, that is if you plan to continue projects like that.
