Default WOW those things are heavy

So I finally received my Shrockworks rock rails and Clackey and I put them on last night and we could not believe how heavy they are. They look great and I am very happy i went with them. I cant see anything being able to get through them to the body.......

Did you find someone to help lift'em? I was on vacation with no one else around so I ended up using a floor jack.

- Less laughs
- No one to order around
- More getting up and down

+ More beer for me
+ No loss of focus on the side of the holder so they stayed where I needed them to be
+ No wife calling for him to come home

Bottom Line: Quicker job, but less fun

They are solid aren't they?

I had Clackey lay down and I dropped them on his chest and then I climbed under there to give him some help. I couldnt be the one with the rails on chest because I was doing all this with a broken rib.
