Anyone think they could install this kit on their own? The kit includes replacement upper and lower control arms, front coils, rear 5 inch flip kit, and new shocks all around. Reason I'm asking is I just got off the phone with We Do Trucks and they want $7-800 to install this kit because they have never heard of it. 2/16/2006 4:13:34 PM |

Don't know why everyone thinks its a lift kit. I would not be lifting a 2wd 4 banger ranger. Its a 4/5 drop kit. 2/17/2006 12:50:02 PM |

is the rear kit one that you have to cut the old perches off and weld the new ones on? or is it a bolt on type deal? 2/17/2006 1:48:19 PM |

that is really easy to change. Rear is a piece of cake. Front shouldnt take long either.
And WeDotrucks is something, DJM is one of the leading static drop companies in the country.
