I'm just wondering how many of you actually installed your own lift and how long did it take you? Did you do it in your drive way or did you have access to a lift? Not really interested in hearing about BB lifts but a complete suspension replacement.
Thanks.

 

I did it in my garage with floor jacks and jack stands, took me about 3.5 hrs would've been faster if I had more adequate tools

 

I'm like AA and in ta twelve step process..haha

I installed mine with the help of another forum member. We used his garage and it took about 6 hrs, 8 with lunch and drinking. we only had 2 jack stands and a floor jack. I had zero knowledge of how to do this going in to the install. Since then I've added 1" spacers on my own, the tire carrier and all of the steering components including the extended brake lines. These came about a year and a half later.

 

Did my friends Tj took about 4.5 hours that's with beers. in the drive way I will do mine when i get the money to do it

 

With the help of friends I did a 2.5in mopar lift, took about 4-5hrs. That was Shocks/springs/front trackbar/swaybar links.


it can be done with a (really) good tool chest, preferably power tools and the help of someone who knows what they are doing to help things go quicker. Lots of different bolt and nut sizes under there, we used everything from 10-21 mm some english and lots of duplicates.

I did mine in my garage with jack stands and hand tools. I took my time and put about 6 hours in it with multiple breaks too. I have a Teraflex 2.5 with w/ shock extension, Monster track bar and grade 8 bolt kit. Needless to say I was sore the next day...LOL!

 

Seems like it takes everyone about the same amount of time. What about a long arm kit? How long with how much help?

 

Did my Rusty's 3.25" in about 6hrs with adjusting the track bars and everything. I had a floor jack and 2 jackstands on a gravel driveway.

 

Long Arm is a lot of cutting and welding 12-16hrs i'd think. I did a Rock Krawler 3.5 Max Travel And it took us 10hrs with Small breaks.

 

I did..4" ultimate flex arm from full traction
