Need write up on leveling kit

i recently bought a leveling kit off of a fellow forum member. it was a trail master 3" shackle kit. now i have a box of parts and some directions i printed off of the internet. the directions are confusing and have bad pictures so im not even sure i have everything i need. plus the guy gave me a new drop pitman arm and track bar relocating bracket so and advice or pics would be great. i know this would be easy to do if i just had a good pic to look at so i could tell where stuff goes. thanks.

As I've stated in other posts, I'm new to the superduty trucks, but I wouldn't think drop pitman arms and track bar brackets would be come needed untill you're going to 4" or more of lift, maybe even 6" to 8".... you just might have helped the guy clean out his garage, and took some stuff he didnt need/want anymore.
I wish I could help with "directions" or pictures, but..... If nothing else, I'll bump this up for ya, some one will know what you've got....

I put my 6 incher on with a friend. and if its anything like a body lift its not 2 hard but if u never done it before it could take a little time. U need a couple jack stands. List the parts that the leveling kit comes with and maybe post pictures up here. Ive helped with real lifts but leveling kits are smaller and i take it u have maybe some spacers for your coils maybe? what year truck and what kind of suspension. blah blah blah list all that stuff and ill dig what i can for you

I bought a 6 inch lift but i got close to 8-10 inches cuz my front springs were worn out and inverted! im using the stock pittman arm... i could use a bigger one but mine works.
