going to install an icon stage one level kit this weekend....how in the hell are you guys lifting the truck high enough to drop the axle out and remove spring??!!! I have standard 4 ton jack stands, and a floor jacks with about 28" of lift...my jack stands extend about 2 feet and that aint even close to getting the truck frame high enough to drop the axle down!....obviously a 2 post lift would be a nice option, but i just DONT happen to have one in my shop...YET!! LOL.....any suggestions??? pretty please?

put your jack on blocks. i keep rail road ties handy. they are not to expensive

Yes....i have used many a 2x4 on my frames back in the day....i figured with all these leveled trucks, someone had a genius idea..... i never realized how high the frame was off the ground on a reg 4x4 with the 20" wheels....lol
