Leveling kit install

[CuylerTech]

Hello, I just purchased a 2.5" kit from HBS and it came in today. I tried using my googlefu skills to find a video for my 07' ram 1500, but did not find one that helped. I was originally going to install them myself but quickly lost confidence when I looked at the instructions. Local guy quoted me $200 to install so back to wanting to try myself. Long story short, does anyone have a good guide/video for installing a front leveling kit on a 06-08 1500? Thanks.

Yep I do.....Just did a 2" on my 08. #1 put your work off for a week, get two cans of PBlaster and start spraying. I live in NY. My front end was frozen together. When we first tried getting it apart we hit the lower strut bolt with a sledge hammer and it did not move. I bought all new bushings in case we had to cut the front end out. After spraying the crap out of the strut bolts, bushings, and the lower control a arm bushings it came apart much easier. Only needed one control arm bolt, one bushing and one nut. Control arm bushings are $35 each x4. Control arm bolts $22 x4 Bolts $3 x4. They do not make a lower strut bushing if you need it but if you Google it there is a MOOG bushing that will fit. Hopefully all that PBlaster will spare you all those parts, it did me, but better have them before hand just in case.
