Pics worked great for me. The build looks great. Hoping to get the MT/G's myself.

looks good and 16 hours is about right for a first time install by your self it took me about 12 to do mine but i was also doing the rear main seal at the same time. when you get some money saved get the r.e. adjustable track bar it will give you much more flex over the stock. did you get some sway bar disconnects to go along with the lift

I think I could have pulled it off in a lot less time if I was dealing with a newer vehicle, the seized nuts and bolts were a huge delayer, but I took my time too as to make sure I did everything right and I enjoyed the whole job so no need to rush .

I have RE Quicker Disconnects on the way, and also going to get a new track bar when I have the $. I was thinking about going with the Rusty's over the knuckle steering setup because all my components are a bit worn. Are you familiar with that setup or do you have any opinion about it?
