Educate me guys on the cab lift on a F250 Crew. I know there is 6 bolts supposedly holding it on but what about all the other stuff, wires etc??? Is this easier than it looks??? How could it be done without a side lift?? Any suggestons?

Well I was excited. I still don't have it. They got it back togather and the oil pressure light started coming on. after 2 days of testing they confirmed that it is the oil pump. So I guess I will be with out my truck the rest of the year.

Well better mow than when I am out of warrenty.
