DIY for KW sleeve over kit (H.A.S)

I hope this thread get attention for posting it here. I wish general section is open for all kind of threads (same as M5board or 6speedonline)

I bought used KW sleeve over kit and planning to do the install by myself since most of Indy charge alot to do it. Is there any DIY for sleeve over kit. I know there is one for normal spring install but noting specific for KW sleeve over kit.

Has anyone done it before? any tips for easier installation? When do you adjust the ride height? and how to make sure parallel wheels are aligned on same height?

Thanks in advance.

There are millions of DIY's for doing this. Any DIY for tear down will work. As far as installation.....its reversed. I would make sure you have the separator for the spindle. It's squeezes the shock body. It's pretty much just a rounded flathead on a socket. It spreads the spindle just enough to remove shock body without spreading too far and damaging. For $15 I'd just get it to have the right tool.
