Sounds good. Be sure to get before and after pics for us.

So last night I wasn't able to finish the install. Struggled with installing the cross member.

The cross member was designed to got on the inside of the frame. So I had to cut off part off part of the little flaps on inside of frame, not sure what they are called.

Not the best cut but it worked

Once we got the cross member into place, had to mark 12 holes to be drilled.
Dropped the cross member back out and spent awhile trying to drill all 12 holes. Took a while but got it done.

That sits high. You going to use the stock tranny mount?

Got my lower control arms removed and partially removed the uppers. Began cutting off the stock lower brackets with a grinder, but had to call it quits for the night. I'm going to borrow a torch from work to save some time. Should have everything done tonight.
