Hey guys: I was wondering if anyone knows of a how-to on installation of 2" front Poly spacers and rear Ad-A-Leaf stuff?? I just bought a set here from RobinHood and don't really know what's gonna be involved in installing them. He said that there were instructions to be found here online somwhere, and I'm sure there are, I just don't know where to look. Thanks -Josh. (This is the set I've got):

Add a leaf is easy, just take the leaf pack off your truck, break it and insert the add a leaf where it fits, bolt em back together and reinstall it on your truck, as for the front I would suggest renting a coil spring compressor from autozone

A coil spring compressor is not needed at all. You just have to undo the shock and sway bar end links, remove the lower coil retainer nut (1 1/8" wrench or socket). The vehicle needs to be supported by the frame not the suspension. Step down on the hub and it will droop far enough to get the spacer in under the coil seat. Reinstall everything in reverse order and take it in to have it aligned. Voila.
