Will RSB and FSTB cause.....

any unusual tire wear, or cause the springs/shocks to last not as long? I know the benefits of these mods, but are there any NEGATIVES that one needs to know?

Also, how long does it take to do these two? I would think the FSTB should be easy. Can the RSB be installed without a jack/hoist?

no adverse affects from either one.

you should use jack stands when installing RSB. FSB takes 10 minutes to install and RSB takes about 45 minutes first time....

check the FAQ and how to's up top, they have install pics and such...

both are a peice of cake...I have both and the only tire wear is caused by more aggressive driving I suppose...I used the jack on both sides and slid jack stands in underneath.

Isn't the tread wear rating on the OEM tire like 160 or something? That's pretty crappy right?
