Great video. Makes me almost think I could do the job myself! How long did it take you to make the change?

Thanks fortunately I have 6 ton stands, my floor jack is sketchy.

Well let's see...
20 mins video * 30 frames/sec = 36000 frames
the time lapse was set at 1 frame every 2 seconds
which means the real time captured was 36000 * 2 = 72000 seconds = 20 hours



Hmmmmm, that's actually about right. Damn....
I took my time and worked over the week during evenings.

Awesome. Gotta save that video just in case the internet crashes Definitely will be a huge help if I ever decide I need a lift. Thanks for the hard work!

I had it planned to get everything installed in a shop. Unfortunately the addiction resurfaced and took over as soon as I unpacked the boxes of goodies.


Ha! I can see that happening as well. Why I'm leaning towards just getting the TRDP and leaving it alone. I had a 95 bronco that I had done a full suspension and other mods on, only to be pissed off at the dealer when I had to trade it in for a more "practical " gag family vehicle...great job again putting together the video for everyone.

Yep, that's another valid option as well. I went with the TEP because I couldn't find any TRDs and my wife wanted a sunroof. Plus, the KDSS on the TE sounded like a good option to get at the time. Plus, I saw it on the lot in my favorite color and fell in love with it on the spot. Plus.... oh well, you get the picture
