here is teh installed product, using 5/8th grade 5 bolts

im sure  you all are wondering about the coils

well i removed the 4 inch lift blocks, the perches are 2 inches taller, which left me with a 2 inch differance

so i added aerostar coils, these coils lifted the truck 2.5 inches, as well as picked up the rear spring so that its not riding on the overloads anymore.

the truck rides better, can handle more payload((i carry alot of tools)
and sways less on the windy raods i drive to work

im very impressed, espessially considering they where 15 dollars at the wrecking yard and took 20 mins to install
