Topic: 3" body lift... How hard??

[project black out]

People have done their own. Fowlhunter is one of them. It needs an alignment after being done anyway so I had the shop do mine along with the alignment.

ok ok makes sense!.... im gonna call up to a really good shop here in town they are always packed but they have very good deals. and i hear its worth the wait

i keep hearing differently.  we put a lift kit on my brother in laws patriot all by ourselves, and we had no idea what the f*** we were doing, :P  so my question is, can i do this myself?  im on a tight budget right now and i dunno if i can afford to pay extra to someone else to do the install, even though it will be done right.  once i do that it needs an allignment, so i will also wait until i have (at least) new tires as well, so its all done in one shot.  also, any links to the right shock extenders?  i cant seem to find ones for the front.  thank you!
