what kind of spring compressor did you use for the front? pics if possible

 

[Scottm2010]

Well, I had a shop do the front because that is what people recommended. But you can use just regular spring compressors, just be careful because there is a TON of pressure on that spring.

yea the more i think about it ill prolly go to a shop, unless i can get access to a spring compressor

most auto parts stores will rent you one. You pay full price then just return it for your money back. thats what I did

 

[Scottm2010]

Yeah, that's what I did as well for the back.

what size Boilers shims? 1/4 or 3/8 I might look into doing this myself.
found a canadian distributor for BDS about two hours away :happy160:

did you do the clevis lift as well?

 

[Scottm2010]

Sorry I haven't been on here much.

My front is 21.5 inches and the rear is 22 inches... I don't know what you did. Haha

Thanks! It took some searching around to find it. I found it on one of the Liberty forums. Just search around on the for sale section and hopefully you can find something!

I have the 3/8 Boiler Shims.

Thanks for the complements!
