So I'm pretty certain that I'm going to install my Zone 4" lift. By myself, one person. Long story but I've not nobody to help me and I've done just about everything mechanically to vehicles - so I think it's doable.

Has anyone done this, any advice you can provide?

I did a 2.5" leveling kit myself last year on my 2011. Just be careful with the front sway bar linkages! I broke one trying to get it off. It was really tight because I had 60,000 kms on when I did the level. Cost me $120 to get a new one! Other than that it went together pretty easily! There were a couple times I needed someone else's help to hold something or to push something down though

Did a 6" RCX by myself. Take your time you do fine. It will take longer so allow for that.

No problem. I like doing things by myself. That way I know it's right. I'm kinda ****.

I'm the same way. I've done everything mechanically aside from a lift and rebuilding a trans/ rear end. Just wanted to make sure it was a possibility. I have the instructions pretty much memorized and nothing looked glaringly obvious that couldn't be done by myself.

I just did a 6" Pro Comp lift into mine this weekend, took me and my buddy about 8 hours. You should be fine, take your time and don't rush.
