It took me 7 hrs. to install the shackles and coils spacers last Fri. The drivers side shackle took 15min. but the passenger side took me 3 hrs. to hammer out the top bolt of the shackle...it was rusted BAD in the metal sleeve of the bushing and I didn't have a torch. The front took the other 4 hrs. Had to make a homemade spring compressor and deal with more of the rust. That's what I get for having a vehicle that has 163,000 miles in the salt. It took me 12 hrs. last spring to put in the PA. The explorer used to be tu-tone brown and rusted BAD, so I gave it my own black paint job that costed me $140 in materials and 3 days of sanding and body work. Up close it doesn't look great, but it doesn't look bad either.
