Can't find a DIY for kw sleeve kit

[KwlAznKid]

tried searching both here and on google for an install with no luck anyone have one they can link me?

I can/have done spring installs a bunch of times so I can't imagine this being too much more difficult (i hope) lol

thanks

Pretty sure I followed the install guide on KW's official website.

Although not specific to the E90 platform, the principles are the same. I used it when I performed the work on my car. See the link below. Also use the instructions that come with it.

A couple of notes here from my own experience.

-For the rear end, use a second jack under the control arm to release pressure on the factory spring. This will help when removing the lower bolt for shock. There is another lower bolt connecting the control arm to the wheel hub. The second jack makes a huge help when removing and installing that bolt. This was the hardest one for reassembly. I used to the jack to line it up for ease of install if that bolt. So important as I found out that I had to remove this a few times when setting my ride height in the KW HAS. Unfortunately, when try to use the spanner wrench on the HAS for the rear, the whole assembly spins and as such I found that removing the spring was easiest to change the height. Once you've done it a few time it is pretty straight forward.

-Rear assembly WILL require removal of the interior panels.
