-You will have to have the 4wd shifter cut then with the supplied extension welded in.
-You may want to lube up the steering shaft at the steering box a couple times before you put in in the extension.
-If you have a K&N FIPK you will have to adjust it/plan on going different CAI due to lifted fender (a smaller filter might work)

From what i remember, i started off checking for frame/body connections- first is removing the 4wd shifter then searched for grounds/couple in front, removed the gas hose/cut to put in extension, removed front/rear bumpers
Lifted 1 side at a time (this was by myself) can be a little tricky with the body tipped/alignment of bolt/threads. Loosened the fan shroud.
I cant exactly remember but i think i had to flip the lower rad hose.

Take your time, use common sense, follow the instructions, use loctite and a torque wrench..
