    I'm in Marlboro. I'd do it whenever help was available. Doesn't look like it's difficult per se. Just easier to do w/ a second set of hands and maybe someone whose done bolt on's before. I know there a ton of shit that has to be moved around.

    It's definitely not hard, but 3 people is ideal, and about 4 jack stands.

    That's insane. On my Xterra I did it in the parking lot of the apartment I was living in at the time with the flu.

    Unless something changes, I should be free. No experience with bolt-ons, but I can't imagine it's that tricky.

    Jack stands will help too... set the outer tube of the sliders on the stands and just lift them up from the legs and get the bolts in...

    Trickiest part is the bolts in the boxed portion of the frame... have to unbolt the brake lines to get your hand up in there...

    Can't make it Eric. Got stuff with the family.

    I suggest extension wings on your Floor Jack and straps for safety.

    You can borrow my stuff.

    @Mobtown Offroad has a great solution for this. A long ass metal arm welded to the nut/square washer for that reach into the boxed frameupload_2017-4-24_0-8-10.jpg

    It's not that hard at all. 1 person can easily do it IMHO and experience, just need the jack and a well placed piece of wood or the nice setup that Subway4x4 posted. Use youy eye to get the center of gravity on the sliders and then wheel it up to the side of the truck, jack up, get a few bolts in loose, and re-position jack if needed.

    This would be very nice!^^but a piece of wood, moving slow/smooth, and not being made of glass and you'll be fine.

    Ohh yeah, forgot about that. My forearm barely fit and I could just barely hold the nut in place to get the bolt on
    Smart. Definitely thinking of the customer and ease of installation. Nice work @Mobtown Offroad

    It can be done with one person and two jack stands, just kinda sucks. Mine is also a DCLB, so thats the worst case
