depending on the size of the lift you may need to extend brakes steering and fuel lines, and mess with the tranny linkage and transfercase linkage but other than that its easy

You shouldn't have a problem with a 3". Mine has that and I did my 97 Jeep Wrangler Sport as well. Everything you need comes in the kit along with routing instructions. Just make sure you lift it correctly because if it slides on you then it's hell getting it back on the frame straight.

I installedmine. It was pretty easy, you do have to legnthen the trans linkage by welding it, and the trans shifter but the good kits come with all that stuff. Also need longer fuel filler hoses but mine came with them. Pretty straight foward.
