Didn't want to wait for Bilsteins up front so thought I'd try the procomp for the front level. There wasn't a lot of info about them out there so took a gamble. Truck is 2012 crew 4x4 with 3.92 gears. I live in south east texas. Roads are horrible so u feel every bump. Truck rides better than stock. I feel more control on the road when hitting all the bumps and potholes. Truck sits level with the shock set at 2.75. You only have 2 settings...stock or 2.75. With the body lift it looks great but can't wait to go higher. I need some wheels and tires before then.uploadfromtaptalk1397426323046.jpg

Yes sir. Took me a couple days to do both by myself and with only hand tools and the factory jack lol. Had to rent a strut spring compressor but that it.

Bed body bolts were the hardest to get out. I had to use a long half inch drive extension to get down below the body so I could get leverage when braking them loose. Other than that directions were not the greatest but I made do.

I've noticed that reading through the instructions a couple times. The Sport front bumper is probably my biggest concern. Heard it's a ***** to get off.

It's not too bad when we took off Ultra's just needed a second set of hands to help lower it.

Ya its not bad. The sport bumper cover is held on buy 2 metal screws in the wheel well. I think 2 plastic ones in that location also. One of the metal ones is behind the fender. It's not bad tho. I think 4 bolts at the bottom then cover comes off. 3 main bumper bolts on each side and that's it.

Did all the body lines line up after the body lift install. They have brackets to relocate the bumpers?
