    Changing Coils

    Hi All I did a quick search but didn't find what I wanted to know.
    I'm about to change the coils in my ute. From standard to a 2 inch lift
    and upped the weight for the rear. Is it a matter of unbolting shocks
    and stabilisers and jacking up the body. ( This is what it looks like I need to do )
    Then when high enough remove and replace spring fit new shock
    and were away or is there underling evil

    Pretty much. You may need to remove the brake line 't' from the diff and away bars so just watch them as your jacking.
