Install time on AFE stage 2
Hey Everyone, I was just wondering how long it took you to install your AFE stage 2 air kit. I got mine and were getting snow here. I just wanna know I wont be out there the whole day while its snowing trying to get it installed. It doesnt look dificult but those are the ones that give you the most trouble usually.

I didn't look at the clock, but if I had to guess, I'd say it was around an hour for me too.
I was in no hurry, and in fact I really took my time and checked out other stuff while I was under the hood, eyeballing how the zoodad would go if I did it, checking out the turbo (this is my first diesel) etc.

Thanks for the replys. I was gonna install it yesterday, but my buddy's wife had an accident. Too cold and Icy here today to even think about installing it. Next time it hits 35 when the sun is shining Im on the Job. Im off the whole winter and I usually work inside my house on projects not outside in the cold.
