Lift install!!!

So I have a question for the experts out there. A friend and I are about to start installing my PC 6in Stage I lift w/ rear aal on my 05 Scab, but we don't know if jack stands will be enough to put it on? Will I need to find a lift? Any tips on the whole install would be great too!

THANKS!!!

Me and a buddy did mine last friday in 9 hours taking it from a 4/6 drop to the 6" lift in my single car garage with a floor jack and 2 jack stands. You should be able to do it in about 5 hours since you arent having to remove a lowering kit and recompress the stock struts and spring.
