[Exp099]

I just order a 3" body lift and a 3" rear Coil spacer.. Im thinking about doing it myself just wondering if this was hard to install since i have no expierence this will be my first lift on my 99 Expy Xlt.. Ipost some pictures on how it went before and after!!

What are you doing witht the front? TT or Keys If the body lift is from PA then it comes with good instructions. follow them!! Just need to lube up the old rusted bolts. The front two mounts the bolts broke on mine,but no other problems. AS for the rear coil spacers there pretty easy to install. Put the frame up on jacks lower the diff and pull out the springs then insert spacer at the top and replace coil spring. lower jack = higher Expy

yeah they aren't too bad... just clean the undercarriage well although you will still eat dirt during the process and spray the bolts with PBblast a few times a day for a few days before you do it.... and torches for heating bolts helps if you can get one...

Yes there is pictures, and I don't remember taking the shocks off but you might have to undo one end of the shocks. My spacers came with instructions from Daystar.

heat will allow the bolts to come free if you can not get them with PBblaster... it causes the threads to expand and that will allow you to turn the bolts... just be careful if the come out cuz they will be hot.... ask me how I know...lol
