It is not hard, just time consuming. I installed a bodylift on my 98 tacoma when I was 16. it took me about 16 hours of work in my grandmothers driveway.

I would recommend going on performance accessories website and looking at the instructions. You will see it is not hard just a lot of detailed steps. You are separating the body from the frame.

I'm wondering could something be fabbed to keep tow hooks under the bumper but mount a bull bar in the hole left behind?....or at least that's what my plan is when I get my body lift.
