Also, I used a 4 foot long aluminum folding platform, like you would use for painting/etc indoor low ceiling work, but you can make one out of a piece of scrap plywood or 1x12 lumber and some 2x4, extend it out from the running boards and put some blankets or foam down. Makes a nice bench that...

One other thing, if you're working alone, set the booster in place, get some wood blocking and shore it up against the battery compartment while you install the firewall nuts. A couple of feet of 1by2 and some cut pieces for shims will hold it well.
