Skyjacker Suspension System ROCKS!!!!

Well my 6 inch suspension system came in this past Tuesday and we installed it on the truck the following Thursday night. It went pretty smooth, a few hang-ups here or there but for the most part the lift is pretty much like they say a "Bolt on" lift. It took a total of 8 hours to complete and this was the first one we have done on a 2004 F-150, so the next one should be a little smoother. The ride is pretty darn good. Better than expected from a fresh set of coilsprings and replacement rear leaf springs. SKyjacker really did a great job designing this one . Well the pics are in my gallery. Sorry they aren't the best pics ( I used my camera phone) but I will take some better one's soon that I will post. I have to say Skyjacker is " THE BEAR OF SUSPENSION" Oh yeah and 37 inch BFG Mud-Terrains here I come.

How much did you pay for the kit, if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks for the responses guys. Sorry it took me awhile to get back but I was on vacation. As for the price, it was a pretty penny. I own my own 4x4 shop so I was able to buy at cost. I believe the kit goes for about $2300 or so. And for the tools, well the only thing special was the spring compressor. Everything else is the norm. Having a lift sure did help to raise the truck up to work on.
The truck rides great. Still pretty close to factory but with a little difference of course. Other than that I wouldn't waste my money on any other lift out there. SKYJACKER ROCKS!!!!
