Well, it all went well. The person that I had come to help, more or less because I don't like doing work like this alone, brought his own floor jack and jack stands, so with 2 floor jacks and 6 stands there was no lack of precaution.

Used a combination of things. To take the wheels off we jacked just high enough to take the weight off the wheels and to put them back on we leaned them on to get one stud on and then jacked up and the wheel just swung in onto the other studs.

I honestly didn't think there'd be any issues, but I didn't want to assume there would not be any issues. Always better to be safe.

Didn't get many pictures, just a before and after of the fender and wheel on one site. it was really too **** cold out today for taking any more time than needed. Not much fun working outside when it's 33f.

Glad it all went well...... Enjoy the stability of the wider stance....

@Dale, also wanted to tel you that I didn't see any binding of the socket when mounting the spacer. Don't know what was changed, but whatever it was seems to have corrected that.
