You wont be able to do it yourself.
Youl have to take it to a shop specailsing in suspension.
Porbably end up costing upward of 500 dollars.

WH STATESMAN 5.7
sounds like the same thing im looking at getting done.

This weekend ill do the front bushes, shocks and lowered springs then the rear shocks and springs. and was told id need a camber kit as well. After getting different stories on this, found out i need a 4 point kit. camber and toe (2 x Nolathane kits part #46138A)
as far as i gather series 2 statesmans plus i assume the vx range only need 1 kit. Cost me $95 each from sprints.
The only trouble is i think it may be a little out my wanting the hassle to do myself, as i believe the factory bushes neede to be pressed out plus removal of trailing arms and maybye removing exhaust (from cat back) to make it eaiser to drop trailing arms, so i may end up just paying someone else to fit the camber kits, had a quick quote of $250 to fit but need to confirm this. thats plus the 2 kits $450 all up.
good luck

Yea to put the kit in the whole rear end need to be dropped.
You wont be able to do it yourself as it will need to be properly alligned.
So you got qouted $450 for supple and fitment of the kit?
Thats a decent price.
