The shipping will be the killer.

I figure if im gonna do it I should do it correctly the first time.

Everything that I have read about the G.Lewis stuff has been possitive.

My big decision was whether to lift it more or not.

I decided not to, I think she does fine as is.:)
 
So post No1 says "I do NOT want to lift it"... which is why folks recommended standard LR.
What changed your mind?

My parts have shipped from Wales.

I am excited.

New roof, new winch bumper and winch, new suspension.

My wife is ****ed, she wanted a new kitchen:ballchain:
 
So, I am not a meachanic but am used to tools and minor jobs.

Will I be able to do this install myself?
 
Another dumb question.

On a stock 90, whats to stop the spring from coming out of place on full articulation?
 
The lack of articulation .. ;)

Seriously, the damper doesn't move far enough, so stops the axle moving enough to displace the spring.
 
Ahhh !!

the shock/damper holds it there !!

Then that would explain the "front spring retainers" from Mr. Lewis.

Ive got lots to learn.

Thanks guys.
