ok, first problem. My jack doesn't go high enough to lift wheel off the ground.

What now?

You can put something under your jack. .cinder block or 2x4 etc. Problem #1 You need beer while you are doing the job!!!! I would pick it up while you are out!

I did the six inch in my dirt driveway with a young ass floor jack, a pallet, 2 cinderblocks, a couple 2x4's, and the stock jack So you can most def. tear into it by yourself. +-3 hours besides the caster bushings. Good Luck. Pm me if you need any ideas from a MacGuyver type like me

all done - stabilizer and caster bushings. Tomorrow I can do those.

Did you do the heavy or medium lift? Please share the results on how it rides when you are done. I assume 2.5" lift vs. J's?

After putting the lift on my FJ60 it makes installing a lift on the FZJ80 seem like childs play.
