So the lift finally came in and I've got the tires, now I just need to put the lift on. I do want to know if everybody leaves the inner fenders out when they put their lift on? And if there is any other advice on putting on a Rusty's 2.5" lift I would appreciate it, thanks

No need to remove the inner fenders at all unless you want to or you want to run huge tires :wink:
As far as the lift they are all pretty much the same, not that hard at all. Lots of posts on here about shortcuts etc

You can take em out or leave em, it's up too you. If you leave them in you may (probably will) have to trim them up a bit depending on your tire size. As for installation, check these instructions out. They are for a frankenlift, but everything is the same, with the exception of having to disassemble and reassemble the front struts.

If they use salt around where you live, leave them in for sure. You don't want your underbody rusting out from beneath you.
