Default dropping my truck

So I finally got my drop kit for my truck. I ended up going with a 2/4 drop from djm. The only problem is ive never installed one of these kits before, I am good with tools though. Does anyone know where I could get proper instrunctions on how to get the job done? (I.E. pics or vids)
My truck is a 2004 Silverado Crew Cab and the kit is the DJM2999-2/4. Thanks and hope to get some good input soon.

U should made sure that you could drop it first because if your leaf springs are above your axle you won't be able to put drop blocks between them you'd have to buy a flip kit which would result ina 6" drop

I believe the kit I got is a rear flip kit. The front is running control arms. How to pictures would be great aswell. Thanks for the replies guys.
