Default rustys 3.25 advance kit

i bought rustys offroad 3.25 advance kit, im planning on installing it next saturday. im wondering about how long it will take to install? i will have a hydrolic lift i will beable to use and all the tools needed. the only reason im wondering is because i will be doing this at my dads work and he will need to leave around 230. we would plan on starting at 7, i will also have 2 or 3 people helping. i don't want to rush because thats usually when people mess up, ive made this mistake many times, i have scares to prove it. thanks

What made you go with the Rusty's kit? I was looking at those as well but I haven't seen too many reviews or people going with them. The popular choices seem to be TeraFlex and Rock Krawler, why aren't people going with Rancho, Skyjacker, Rusty's or some of the others?

I run Rusty's 3.25 and glad I do. No complanits. I also run JKS, Teraflex and Zone components. 6 hours is a good estimate. Good luck and post up a few pics when your done.

one of the guys i worked around and he also has a jeep suggested it. i wanted to lift my jeep around 3-3.5 inches but i also wanted disconnects brake line exctensions. being american made was a big bonus. also seen this lift kit installed by david stacey on his show, i was impressed by it and everything that came with it.

I think I saw the same issue by David Stacey which is why when I was surprised when I started researching they weren't one of the top lifts. I really like this one as well from what I've seen. Good Luck
