Hi guys, My Calmini gear (3" articulation system/2" low range Offroad body lift) arrived the other day. I'm going to try and fit it this weekend. But I haven't fitted suspension gear before, so are there any tech posts regarding how to fit one? Any tips would be greatly appreciated 
Cheers Matty |

If you have decent car stands, jack, socket set and a general knowladge with what go's where, you'll be right. Suspention is one of the easier things to work on a car. The best tips I can give is, lay under the car and look, get to know what go's where, do one corner at a time and take your time. |

Just make sure you use plenty (read HEAPS) of rubber grease on the bushes, otherwise you'll wind up with a lot of squeaks.... |

I had squeaks for a while before I cracked. Most irritating noise. |

Read instructions thoroughly before starting. Lay the items out so you know where every piece is going to go BEFORE you even jack the car up. Understand it and then ask questions. |

remember when they're talking about the passenger side, they really mean the drivers side.

I have also found it will take longer then what you expected. There are some good write ups floating around. The instructions that come with the kit is a bit brief but there is a more detailed write up getting around. |
