I did mine in a day, about 8 hours. I also forgot about the two body bolts in the rear wheel wells. Good video.

dude your video is totally redneck I love it!...question tho, why do some kits include an extension for the steering shaft and some don't? Did you run into any problems with yours as far as the shaft goes?

Not as hard as it seems, I replaced all the body bushings with
poly,and did the BL in one day with out any help, I also had air tools

There shouldn't be any problems with the steering shaft because they extend pretty far. When i took mine off for the spark plugs it extended about 4 inches. so i doubt there would be any problems with that.

A few questions. How different is the install for the 1st gen body lift on a 2nd gen then the pa body for the second gen? And I'm not sure I would want to attempt this knowing I don't have air tools nor do I have an accessible floor jack right now. Also, I heard you can flip over the rear bumper brackets and use them that ways for the 1st gen lift on a 2nd gen? Yes?
