I did a friends 4.7, and mine on the same day. He made the wedge out of plywood. The dimensions and pictures of the store bought one are in the archives. Sorry, I"m not going to look for you, I'm busy.

You'll need an assortment of extensions, torque wrenches, etc. Look for install tips in the archives, it'll really help.
