Jon:

The biggest pain is replacing the spring plate bushings which will need replacing unless some one else has done it before you. Ride height is a function of the position of the spring plate on the torsion bars and the postion of the torsion bars in the torque tube. There is about 3/4" adjustment on the stock spring plates, and the key is to get the initial ride hieght to within 3/4"

Many on the board have done this, and as long as you are willing to do the work, I'm sure that you will find 1 or 2 of us willing to help out as best we can.

Phone calls are free, house calls usually require food and beverage and a warm place to work.

Let us know.
