    I did a 2 inch lift one my D1 a few weeks back.

    Didn't take long at all. Round 3 hrs all up. We didn't need a spring compressor either. The only slight problem we had was with the rear left hand side. We had to use a piece of metal to slide/compress the spring into place.

    I was quite surprised at how easy it was.
