Doesn't sound like he has one yet.

I'm a few weeks of having a kit ready, so buy a Just cruising kit. It comes with instructions, and everything you need to do the job ( except for tools) :wink:

Only thing I can think of is your front and rear bar/bumpers wont match.
Steering colum might need extending but a spacer should come in the kit.

Mate I have done this very thing (later Removed it...........)
Things to watch out for are the:
Some brake lines from the master cylinder will need extending, some people dont seem to have this problem.
Steering shaft will have to be safely extended, I achieved this by using a metal spacer, longer high tensile nuts and bolts.
Vacume lines need to be disconnected at the radious arms or something, I cant remember.
Disconnect the Fuel filler.
Install extended brake lines. If you already have lift greater than 2 inches get really long ones.
And as previously stated you will have to make brackets to hold the bumpers on properly.
When you are done connect everything back up and make sure you have bled the brake lines properly.
Done.

In addition to the kit I provide you do need longer brakelines where the lines go from the body to the chassis and mounts for the bumpers
