i had the same situation. i did the rear at a garage across town, drove with stock front and 3'' rear. i got home and did the front at a real slow pace. 3'' coils and shocks. i borrowed a spring compressor from auto parts store, any store will do, but i got the 2 threaded rod style compressor. i found the rear to be more troublesome at home on my back soo i did it at my bro in laws garage with pnuematic tools and a lift. the fronts i did with hand tools. i little forewarning, the upper rear shock mounting bolts may break off, use brute force and knock the old ones out and replace with grade eight bolts and use lock washers to keep from spinning. i put them in place with long angled needle nosepliers. the front coils went in easy, undo the front sway bar and jack oposing end of axle that you will be removing the coil from and i stood on my brake disc and muscled them out the same for installing. i found some info on rustys.com and quadratec.com no one site has all the info . i dont know where i went with this, i hope it helps. i spent three months looking for a lift and researched eveyday on install tips.
