hey guy I finally bought my first zook 95 soft top zook today and I purchasing a 2" lift for it in a week or tow. I don't have much experience with zooks as such but I want to do the installation myself to get a better understanding of everything. Is it a relatively easy job? any do's and dont's I should know about? Any feedback would be appreciated. Cheers!

Easy job. Make sure you have some good jackstands, cars are much better when they aren't sitting on you. I would do one corner at a time, stops diff getting out of alignment. And replace the U-bolts as well.

Pretty much, just put it back in reverse order. I found the easiest way is to jack up the chassis until the wheels are off the ground, undo the U-bolts, then jack up the diff off the springs, and when you're putting it back put the springs in first then drop the diff ontop.
