In my opinion the eibach pro kit is the best if you have long tubes you can go one more step lower to the sportline kit which is an extremely low drop. I looks cool but agin if you header work or a body kit then watching where you drive will become a problem.

Good Luck to'ya,

The back is easy-about an hour-hour and a half if changing shocks and springs. The front shocks are more involved and you will need a spring compressor or take them to have the springs swapped. About 3-4 hours for the front, depending on your skills and problems you encounter.

Your ride will not be smoother, but stiffer.
