I wouldn't plan on a one-day install. Didn't work out too well for me.

I would plan at least 2 days, for the unexpected. I would also pb every bolt you will touch for 2 weeks before you do the lift. I would also buy back up bolts for everything.

I had 6 (I think?) people helping me with mine from 9am til 5pm in a garage with a lift, and I had to go back the next day to do the last 3 hours of work myself. Plan for two to three days to be safe. A torch will be invaluable, and air tools will make it go faster for you.
