Day one of 2/4 drop spring install

First...thanks to all that suggested going to ECE. Drove up there today and got the parts for the 2/4 install (plus some visor hooks and new grill emblem). They were extremely helpful, friendly and professional.

Most of this evening was spent getting the truck situated on jack stands to facilitate the job but did get the right side bag and old shock removed. You can see in the pictures where the brake line bracket has been hitting the exhaust and the axle tubes have hit the frame.

Installing front and rear springs, shocks, shock relocation brackets and a super track bar. Haven't done this before so any tips, advice, etc is welcomed.
