by my calculations if you unpack the lift grab a take out bed liner, pull carpet back grab a remove bolts. gab for half hour drink more install some lift blocks, grab more and bs. install front blocks............well you get the idea i can see it takin 8 hours to do.



the lift looks awesome can't wait to see the 4 inch lift done..

This is sooooo true down here in Florida. I worked at an offroad shop and put alot of bolt on kits on and that's how it was every day lmao too Funny!

im doing mine now while also replacing one mount. the bushings are a PITA to get them to separate from the top and bottom

If I remember correctly the body mount bushings go on top of the lift block not underneath, for stability. Looks good though.

looks good. it took me about six hours to install my 3 inch body lift on my 94 splash. not gonna add and more lift because of the short wheel base. if i didnt live in alaska i would.

pretty sure instructions say to put them ontop of the body mounts....its the way ive always done it too

Finally got the suspension and tires on!

Just so everybody knows this little project kicked my butt. I started installing the suspension lift friday afternoon at 2pm and worked all after noon and all night until 8am saturday morning when i turned my last bolt. That is 18 hours of hell, but it was all worth it now!
