20's i still have. For some reason when I put my stock wheels back on I must of cross thread the nut and when we tried removing the nut it just stripped. So we broke out the plasma cutter and chopped that stud off. Yea fun... [:@]This is not an easy install. So far we are cutting the front Diff bracket to mount the new diff drop bracket. I just uploaded some vids as well.

Yea that was the highlight at 5am sunday.. We are pulling all nighters to get this truck done. We've had alot of set backs with this kit. Alot to crap had to be modified. So far i think the worst is over, i think. We are heading out to get the gears pressed and then putting the whole truck back together. The the gears are the only thing now that is holding us back from putting the truck back together.

How many brackets did you have to modify? And what else are you doing other than the lift?

if there were no surprises or set backs to these kits everybody would put them on, it looks like you have a pretty good tool selection to help get it done.
