I should have measurements tomorrow. i literally moved across the country a few days after the install. Its definitely taller than the beat down XREAS I replaced. It aligned within spec on all the values. I am quite happy with both the stance and the ride quality.

My experience in general was positive. They took a little longer to finish than originally estimated but all in all a seamless job. I was offered a free loaner car to use while my vehicle was being worked on and the final total came out to be less than the estimate.

I have to say, my experience with Hi Tech has not been confidence inspiring. I contacted them for a quote on the Timing Belt job and received an email estimate pretty fast. However when I replied to the email with a few questions about lead time and how long they would need my truck I got...

I too had trouble getting a straight answer when factoring in the V8. I'm having 884/895E installed tomorrow. According to Cruiser Outfitters where I bought the gear, I should see ~2" up front and ~1.5" in the back. I too was only looking for a ~2"/1" lift and that combo seemed like the best bet...

I set mine up today with a few issues but ended up a complete success. Programming the fob portion went smooth per the instructions included. Then I went to get the key cut (closest town is ~an hour away). ACE hardware wouldn't do it but referred me to an old school hardware store. Cutting one...

I replaced mine today. After breaking the 2 outermost bolts loose from above, I slotted them with a dremel and backed them out with a screwdriver. The other 4 were quite a bit easier to get to once the sheet metal guide was removed. I pre-slotted the outer bolts for the new one which made...

Bogarts BBQ in STL. Well worth the minor detour but you need to get there by lunch time.

Would you be interested in selling that spare tire hoist? Assuming it works of course...The cable on mine recently broke and I would really rather have a spare tire than not.

how many miles on the springs?

Does it have the spare tire hoist under it? I could really use one (my cable snapped)

Pretty sure there are attachment points for the loops under the edge of the double decker platform. the hooks go in the forward tie out loops at the base of the rear seat
