    A hydraulic motorcycle\ATV jack would probably be the best as far as keeping them balanced whilst moving into position...But yes, definitely have a second set of hands available at least.

    I may have tweaked a few things...
    +1 for jack stands, even with a second person.

    When I put my driver’s side slider step on I did it by laying underneath and holding it up with a knee. Damn things are so heavy I exhausted myself to the point of sickness for the next hour or so. Waiting till I got home to do the other side with jack stands and it was so much easier!

    Still, any time you are mounting and lining up bolts it’s way less frustrating with another person. I have a bad habit of trying to do shit by myself.

    Maybe a receiver mount later on.
    But im done playing recovery guy.
    Im leaning towards doing the receiver set up so can do front or rear recovery or just do something in the rear. At this point just trying to get street legal again.

    A lot of crap and too much money spent
    what I always thought would be nice is to have a hitch in the front and have the winch on a movable plate so you can move it from the front to the back if needed.


    Edit: What Jason said. :rofl:
