Hello
When installing the SFC's on a drive on lift. What I would suggest is take the front control arm off of one side (at a time so the rear doesn't shift). Then place the SFC in location and put hardware in place to hold it in place But do not tighten. Then either weld them to the front front or bolt them to the chassis. Seeing how the vehicle is on a lift the chassis is already loaded. Then repeat on the other side. If you would like I will be more than glad to email you a set of instruction so you have a better idea on what needs to be done.
Thanks
Brad

It is supposed to be a lift that supports the wheels! Not just a lift.
