Hey everyone. Names Dan,I am 21 years old and I drive a 2006 XK, I bought it sept. Of 2010. And I have loved every minute of it. I have installed a factory front tow hook, rear class II hitch.(not for towing just a recovery point), and I just finished my lift. It only took me like a month and a half to do it. It has one hell of a thread over at JF. Right now I have some cb stuff on order should be here today I hope. Well that's me. I hope I can learn and teach here too.

Its the daystar lift. 175 bucks shipped. Install time 2 months. Haha. The lower control arm and strut fork bolt didn't want to come on on the passenger side.

The Daystar lift when you put it was the front and back spacers the same or different, i dont remember when i did mine. Someone installed one not long ago here and it seems one side is higher then the other by half inch, hes wondering if the front ones should be thicker to level off the front and they put both front ones on one side?

The directions are good at explaining the front assembly the rear is just crappy written directions
