Nice stuff. 450-- front 350--rear because the weight of the engine the highest spring rate always goes up front.

it doesn't matter the nice thing is you can put them on either way. IT is 450 front as far as I know though.

I have those shocks, remember that the top adjuster stuff goes in last, you need it removed to put a hex wrench in it to tighen the top hat (I had to pull mine apart). Have fun putting it on and here's hoping your rear LCA bolts aren't seized.

I would actually recomend gettin different lca's and put some energy suspension bushings in and do it all as one peice (lca, shock, spring) assembly....I broke the head off the bolt on both my rear lca's then I was stuck tryin to deal with that...and it sucks ass.
