All the parts came and I have everything installed. Worked out great. Looks so much Fing better!!!!
I made some install videos as well, but don’t know how to mesh them all together. I guess I can post them on YouTube in as multiple videos (1/4, 2/4, etc).





Of course my RSR down springs look like ****.


BendPak 7000TL worked out killer. Just put it together last night. Well worth the $$$ for ease of mind on lifting/working on your cars.


This is at the fullest extension, 24”. You can easily slide under and work on almost everything with a creeper.

Thanks! I need to move a bunch of junk out to our shop, it’s a little cluttered.


Here are a few better shots from this morning. So much better than stock! I’ll try to get some YouTube videos up with part numbers and whatnot.

Thank you FI4runner for posting the info I ordered my spacers and the hardware, now just waiting for the swift springs to ship and I’ll get everything on all at once.

Thanks a ton man, ordering this now!

Question though, why did you not go with the nut kit that is a drop down option with the stud order from Motorsport Hardware, will they not work?

Looks great man, I have the RS-R springs and based on this picture it doesn’t look that much different. If I didn’t get the Launch Edition Incognito color, I’d definitely do white with black rims. That’s what I did for our X7.

It really is a huge difference if you have the RS-R springs closing that rear fender gap is a must.
