I know some of you are considering doing this lift yourself, or wondering if you could/should attempt it.

Here is a video of my experience with it (Individual results may vary . )

Did the instructions really say to take all of that off of the front end? Not being critical or anything, I don’t have a Bronco or the kit, so I have no idea.

Edit: congrats, btw

Yes. well the 4WP instructions say to take the lower control arm off instead of removing the the studs from the bottom of the coilovers though. The Rough Country and Zone ones say to take the studs out.

I didn't want to mess with LCA, and wanted to flip those bolts anyway so went the way of taking studs out, everything else taken off was stated in the instructions.

Did you ever get your electronic gremlins worked out?

Never found anything definitive. Have an open appointment to take it back immediately if I get any alerts or errors pop up. Just waiting on my wheels and tires to get here so I can try the trails again with a bit more clearance and see if I get any more issues.

Ok, was mainly just wondering if coil springs compressors would work a lot easier.

Great video. Gives me confidence that people with more mechanical skills than I could definitely DIY this up!

Thanks so much. I've done enough of this kinda thing to know glitches show up at every turn, you just have to figure the work around, which you did.

Did the front flatten out when you moved it and the tire scrubbed out?

Thanks so much for sharing your experience and taking the time to video all this. Will help a lot of us not screw that lift up. However your cat did not seem impressed at all ;o)

Have a kit myself and was quoted 1000$ from local shop to install.. so I’m anxious to watch your video

You really just paved the way for a bunch of people to DIY their own stuff.
Awesome Job

Did you measure the garage to see if it will drive out before installing

Good job Bill, I didn't see any blood so you know it was a good day, looking forward to seeing your new wheels and tires

Congrats, Bill. Very helpful video. Nice to see both your videos and your presence on the forum in the opening post for a change. Previously, it seemed like someone else would post your videos, a flurry of questions and speculation would occur, and then someone would give you a heads up and you would join by page 20ish.
