Coil Spring spacer installation

I recently bought coil spring spacers for my 01 3.0L xlt. I am a little apprehensive of tackling this. I understand that I need a spring compressor and two jacks (one for the truck and one to support the axle). The spacers came with installation instructions although I would like to know if anyone on here has a step by step (possibly with pictures) of them installing the spacers? any help is much appreciated!

I will probably put some on mine when I eventually get new tires. Want to do a how to for me? :)

You better have a oxy-actetalyne torch ready to heat them bolts up.

I just put new springs on mine and it was pretty easy! I work at a shop that has a hoist though! Unfortunately I didn't take pics of the install! Sorry
