I'm not familiar with the CCM kit, but I did install my Reddy Lift in my driveway. Prior to this my experience was limited to struts on fwd passenger cars only. I found it to be very easy and there is no reason why you can't do it in your driveway. The rear took me about ~1 1/2 hours total (again, never dealt with rear axles before). The fronts took me about 45 minutes each. Expect to take ~3 hours total, starting with the rear if you're not able to use a lift. After doing this install I recommend getting a 4 wheel alignment.

Somewhere in this forum I posted a good CCM "how to" install thread. I did both front and rear, and then removed it so I have a little experience. It isn't all that hard...

After reading, still makes me nervous. Will have to sleep on it to see if I want to do it myself.

If you are remotely mechanically inclined, and can read and understand pictures you can do it. I would install them in my basement garage for extra $$ if I had the chance. It is that easy

So I'm at 82k miles and I was thinking of changing my shocks luckily I don't have autoride lol. Is there any good shocks that will probably add a little more height. I was thinking the z71 shocks.

I'm with Felix on this one. I feel like I could do it, but I've never done shocks, struts, etc. If it was electrical, I'd be all over it. But mechanical.... ugh.

Saw your reply in the other thread. I'm jealous! I wanna see some pics of this install. Especially if you decide to do it yourself. A how to would be cool.

The Z71 shocks don't add more height. They offer a firmer and more rugged ride.

I thought that the Z71 was a little taller than the regular. Learn something new everyday.
