6" skyjacker lift build up.
ok so last week i got my 6" lift from skyjacker but i couldnt start till sunday due to shi**y weather. So here is a bunch of pics of progress..let me know what you think.
passenger side beam unbolted and rivets heads got punched and drilled.
here is how it sits stock.
off topic but can anyone tell the difference in this pic from the top one?
here is the drivers side all connected.
here i started by disconnecting the b-lines, unbolted the shock, cut the spring and supported the pig underneath.
here is the length of the uncut spring.
heres the old center hinge
new center hinge bolted up.
heres another shot of the bracket.
here is the old and new drop bracket for the drivers side.
and here the bracket partially installed.
here is the new and old pitman arm.....for those who decide to do a lift later on you'll need a 34mm impact socket and a pitman arm puller.
here is the pitman arm installed.
can you tell whats missing?
thats all i have done for now, im hopefully getting the rest of the parts after school today and i MIGHT be able to finish the front!!! ill post some pics later tonight.

Thanks Guys! yea i will post some new pics today, i dont think i will be adding anything else today cuz it just started raining a bit....#$%$! so instead im gonna make use of the garage and paint the sway bar red, u-brackets black, and the beam brackets red.
im getting new leaf springs for the rear, add-a-leafs dont really appeal to me and adding blocks is "not right" plus my leafs are starting to really level out.
