12 days was for everything right?

12x3=36. suspension is supposed to take about 8-10 so that leaves a minimum of 26 hrs to do the Body lift. i think i would throw away my truck before i got to the 26th hour of install.

Not to mention Im a girl and some of those bolts take a lot of work to get out. If you work your *** off you could probably get it done in a week with lots of help. Id take a weekend off to do the body then another weekend to do the suspension, that should cover it.

Where did you get that bracket that lowered the e-brake cable? Did it come in your lift? I got the factech 2wd basic lift and i didnt get one. I need something like that really bad.

Thanks,
