3200 rpm install,,,,,, thank you

I just did the 3200 rpm spring install, I printed out the install instructions from the sticky files, and just want to tell you all that it took me 1hr and 10 minutes to do the install, When you do the install, read the instructions several times, in the days before the install, then you wil be more familiar with the process, I found that using a long ball end allen key made the two screws near the diaphram very easy to remove! And the use of the wire for the top install was right on!!!!!!
Rating the job 1 to 5 spanners, I vote it about a 2
Thank you for all the help, the instructions are nothing less than great!!!!!!
Peter.
If you are in the philly area, I would be glad to help you.
OH one more thing, Mine is a 89 1 ton manual, so it was a bit easier for me.

why is that?

because I have an '89 1-ton manual, and my spring has been sitting here for over a month, waiting on some other parts so I can do it all at once...

3200 installation page updates:
-I went through my install page and fixed about a hundred typos
-Also reformatted page to include "click here" text to let everybody know that each image on the page is only a thumbnail to the full sized images..some have stuff that is highlighted.

If you see anything wrong, let me know. I'm known to brain dump on a page like that and leave typos all over the place. Point em out to me
