Should be pretty easy to install. Only thing you'll have to do is cut off the Lower control arm frame mounts. They will be in the way of your new Long arm control arms. If you need help just let me know. Basically all you need is a good set of wrenches, Sockets, and breaker bar. And then of corse a cut off wheel for the lower control arm Factory frame mounts. And alot of PB Blaster.

[QUOTE="94cherokeeman"]
I would love to see your jeep, and no impact driver just hand tools. Do u have a pic of yours, how long did it take you?
Well it's a continuous project
but initially it only took about a week after work each day. But, I learned a ton. So, just let us know when you're ready..

I'm at 4:56 with alloy shafts and e-eaton locker in my D30 and my rear is 4:56 with alloy shafts and welded truss. So, it's just a matter of me saving money for the 35's I want
