I think an install meet would be appropriate. I'll bring booze!

Install is not hard at all. Make sure you set the ride height you want at each wheel. This'll take some time. Then you head out to get an alignment right away.....unless you like tearing through tires needlessly

Id be down. I have HIDs, Mud guards, and a few other small things to install that I just keep putting off. I could bring basic tools and jackstands.
Anyone else interested or have a place to host? |

Get two alignments. Once immediately after, and a second after the coils have settled a bit. I'd also recommend getting a corner balance to make sure it's just right. It makes a HUGE difference.
