Well I have installed lifts before so it won't be that bad. I really don't care about the blocks for now because this is just a winter vehicle.

This is my DD

the 4.5" is nice. it really doesn't ride as rough as people say they do. i had to torch out my lower control arms because i can't wrench on stuff that hard. i got a hernia so no heavy lifting or straining myself. plus the lower sway bar bolts wouldnt come out and i needed to torch out a leaf spring bolt. I have no doubt you are more than capable to install the lift. have fun and be safe.
