hte rear installation of a superlift is a breeze.
but the front however u need to jack it up on the frame rail and use jack stands to hold it in place.

me and 2 other buddy's of mine did his.
took us all day, but then again we are only 18.
we used just a floor jack a 4 stands.

Yeah, Call Shane, Austin or myself lol.. Heck, Billy has done em now too. He knows haha.. Even though he's a 2wd guy.. The sold him a truck without the front axle, those ba$tards lol

Anyways, I have the pics.. Just need to sort through them and find the ones I wanna put up on here for reference and stuff. Hydraulic lift = short install time.

I'm 21 and it took 3 people less than 5 hours to do shanes... Took Austin and myself only, 6.5hrs... Get's smaller everytime lol

Gimmie some time to sort through them and upload

Wayne replied and told me 2150 w/driveshaft, shipped. I replied and asked him if I could get the group price for just the kit though... since he hadn't really answered the question
