You will notice a couple minor differences (I was replacing my calmini 2" with their 3" but it will show you what all is involved.

Looking at the pictures just below step #20, you will notice that the upper strut mount has been flipped:

***DO NOT DO THIS***

I wasted many CV's trying to get a little more drop out of the front suspension. If your front suspension is currently stock, this is a non issue, but if you have flipped the upper mount for a Calmini 2" lift or a spacer style lift, be sure to flip it back to stock (small flange up) or you will over extend and waste your CV's.
