3"?
what's the application- year, models, etc?

depending on what you have, take pics of the parts and we'll tell you where they go.

looks like they came off a SAS vehicle....

okay, let's start with the last pic:


top left- right front suspension knuckle extension
top right- left front suspension knuckle extension
bottom are transmission drop brackets and bushings- IIRC, the one on the left is on the right side of the vehicle and the one on the right goes on the left.

2nd pic-


Top is the front drops and differential mount
bottom is the rear drops and cross brace. that cross brace needs replaced before you even think about installing the kit.

1st pic-


That's all the hardware that bolts the front end together.

Like I said above, looks like you got a take-off. No wonder there's no instructions.

You would wait til today to post this.... I'm in Mason, not terribly far from you and could've came over today and helped lay it all out. Maybe if I'm not working tomorrow we can work something out. It's just going to be difficult to explain in the forums because you have some bolts and stuff you won't need.

I wouldn't try. It hit something pretty hard and would likely fracture trying to straighten it. I'm trying to figure out how it got bent and not the front...

And FYI- I have the same basic kit on my 88 (in my avatar). Your's is a 4" lift, Stage 1.

Did you get the blocks for the rear with it too?

no blocks, what happened is i was in a rear end collisions and both my rearend springs are toast, so im planning on ordering new lift spring from downey offroad, since i have to replace the parts any way, i figured why not use a little lift
