How hard is it to put a Daystar 2" lift in?

Not hard. Can be done with hand tools in your driveway. Just take your time and do one side at a time.

But there are always unforseen issues, especially up north where snow and salt tend to seize nuts and bolts.

Just start on a Friday afternoon and if anything comes up, youll have all weekend to fix it before you need the rig for work on Monday.

Thank you, also I was told that after u install that lift you can put 17" with 33's on? But you have to heat up plastic wheel wells and push them up?

Yeah you have to heat up the plastic that sticks out above where the mudflaps were and push it in and hold it there till it cools down. Use a 2x4 or something similar as leverage to push in and hold.
