Its gonna look sick as hell.

Pay someone to install the lift.

Gears shouldn't be a huge problem.

I would get a superchips to help and re adjust for the new sized tires.

I agree that thing is gonna look real nice, and I'm digging those wheels man, good mix or silver and black. I woul surely pay someone to do the lift, if anything just for warranty reasons, and I know I am not mechanically inclined enough to tackle that job!
