No, just slide the steering shaft a bit. Carefully pull the brake hoses through the inner wing.

Bumpers need lifting if still using originals, Headlights out, bend the transferbox lever.

And reposition the body to chassis brake pipes above the front drivers side trailing arm

Adjust you head lights lower

Adjust fuel filler pipe

Adjust wiring on bulk head

As supergaz said about brake pipe its the passengers side front cut a 22mm hole i think 2" below pipe then cut a slot between the holes and slide pipe down

I think that covers some extras know dout some one else will post some thing we have forgot
