1 out of 5 stars Waste of money and time   December 20, 2009
L. Brosco
As others have said this is nothing more than a collection of articles taken from off road magazines. One shameless product plug after another. Nearly the entirety of this book is a how to guide for production suspension lift packages, something i would expect a package lift kit to come with in the first place. The writers always hire out another garage to do their work, which i can't blame them because they are obviously unskilled and not properly equipped. In one section they even admit to not owning their own drill press! In another they suggest using duct tape to make a permanent fix! I can't make this kind of ridiculousness up. Do not buy this book.

This is a very educational book without being too heavy to read. This is a collection of articles about suspension that really show Petersens experience.

This review doesn't offer to much insight on basic lifts, or give a summary of advantages between a body lift or suspension lift. But, if your vehicle is one of the many featured in this book, I highly recomend purchasing this book. The author shows many how-to photos of the processes being done by professionals and gives many helpful hints so nothinig goes to wrong in the process of upgrading your suspension.

Very little tech info. The title is misleading. The book covers some basic stuff like types of suspension, but lacks any real substinance. It covers mostly the installation of after market suspensions and not "how to build rugged off-road suspensions." Almost all of the chapters are taken directly out of the magazine. Save your money and skip this book.

Thw whole book is just collection of articles taken from previous magazines. Many disgraceful ad plugs. Very little tech. A very disappointing book.
