LIFT IS HERE! Anybody wanna help?

Post by BlueDodgeRam »

Hey everyone, just got my 5" Superlift in for my Dodge Ram. Would anybody be willing/able to help me with the install part? Ill be picking up my new tires (35" Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ) this weekend at home, so i'd like to get the lift in sometime next week. Im mostly free Tuesdays and Thursdays and definitely the weekends, but whenver yall can help me out is great. Will provide beer money if wanted, or whatever else. I do plan on goin to Paragon for the rock race so if anybody wants to help me I can get em there for free. There shouldnt be any welding or cutting involved in the install, but if anybody wants to come out and give me a hand, just give me a call at 434 444 1193 or reply. THANKS!

itd be sweet to do it at someone's garage, but if not wherever. we'll probably need quite a few jackstands or jacks, what do ya think? If anybody wants to do it this Monday if your gonna be here, ill do it, hopefully my steering stabilizer and truspeed comes by friday in that case. if not tuesday would be good if yall are free. it shouldnt really be that hard, just new coil springs, shocks, add a leafs and blocks, 1 piece control arms(2 into one)

i've done alot of dodge lifts and you will need two Tall jack stands and two jacks usually. You need a garage to this b/c it will take 5-6 hours or more, If i am around i would be willing to help.
