TonyN @ www.4x4toys.co.uk does the kits for around £85 + delivery IIRC myself & GWH fitted his kit in a day but we had to s$$$$e the barrell to get half an ounce of sense between us, and had to refuel us on coffee more often than the v6 boys refuel their surfs

It aint too bad to do, a monkey (with a PHD) could do it ) just go round all the mount bolts about a week before you start with WD40 then ya wont have to struggle with em on the day, just make sure you loose'en
the steering shaft, (three splined joints, one under the dash,
the shift lever plate, best to lift up the gear sticks away from the tunnel,
thefuel filler rubber hose, inside n/s rear wing
the rubber shrouds between the front inner wing and chassi, (one went off with a loud "ping" cos i forgot em, and i shat,
do one side at a time and just watch the cables/break pipes as it's going up,
and jack up evenly front and back,
bumper and rad brackets and easy enough, no need to remove the rad but to save damage to it i'd remove the fan, also give ya a bit more room,
It's easier with two people as the so called "captive bolts" aint too captive, i did it on my own and managed to wedge a socket in the cab bolt heads and undo em from under,
take your time and youll be fine
