Are you trying to fit larger tyres? Or is it just lift for the sake of lift?

Picture looks like 31's.
I assume tyre clearance and looks.

Start spraying your bolts with wd40 or similar a few days before you plan on puting your lift in, will make it heaps easier to undo them when you start.

Remove front and rear bars, grill and disconnect fuel filler hose at the neck before you start. Then remove ALL 10 body retention bolts.

Then just use a trolley jack to start lifting the body off the chasis and insert blocks, do one side at a time. Make sure all 10 blocks are in before you put any bolts back in.

Make sure when you start jacking that you aren't overstretching any hoses or cables and loosen as necessary

That's all I got, someone else may be a bit more helpful

I didn't have to touch the steering column when I did mine, so just work it out as you go
