very easy install. just did a buddy's this weekend. took 3 hours with only an impact wrench, standard ratchet, and 2 people.
most of the stuff that the instructions in the kit recommend u dont have to do. fan shroud has to be lowered (brackets come in kit) and then the body lift are really the only things that HAVE to be done. ive done a few lifts on fords and chevys and these are the only things we've had to do. first one i did has been on for about a year and no problems.

3 hours is insane. it took me and my buddy about 10 hours to do mine. but we took our time and checked stuff over really good. if i had to do it again i could prob to it in half the time. its not all that hard just time consuming. you'll probably run into a couple jams but will be able to get through it. i say do it yourself. you learn and have the satisfaction of doing it yourself.

3 hours is insane. My first one took me 18 with new shocks and the second still took me 12 (with new shocks also), but 3 hours is just impressive, almost unbelievable.
Anyway, someone mentioned that I do have install pics in my gallery with captions, so check it out if you want. They aren't that hard but you will need at least 1 other guy and I recommend a case of beer
Let me know if you have any questions, either PM me or just post it in this forum, there's a good group of guys on here that know all the ins and outs as well as any shortcuts...
