My Bilstein Shocks and Total Chaos Shackles arrived today. Thanks GREG !!!! I installed the shocks earlier this evening. Went alright, had some problems with the PS lower bolt, it was being temperamental. Took me much longer than it should have. Most of my larger tools are back at my parents house 250 miles away. I had to go and buy a 19mm wrench and a 19mm deep well socket.

I had the driver side on in about 15 mins. The passenger side took a bit longer because of the lower bolt and needing the deep well socket for the upper bolt. Drove to the parts store with one Bilstein and one ProComp shock. I could easily tell a big difference between the two. I'm gonna go for a short ride here in a bit to get the true effect. If it's what I expect, I can only imagine that it will have me craving for replacement front c/o's.

Shackles need painted and probably won't install them untill Memorial Day whenever I have access to ALL of my tools and a better area to work in, instead of the parking lot at my apartment complex. My neighbors probably think I'm insane because of the amount of time I spend out there doing stuff to this thing.

Anyway here's some pictures, you sunny SoCal guys take notice of what the salted roads does to everything here in PA.
