Ordered it that night.
Vas, I'll give you a little tip that I learned along the way. In your video, see that the front end raises up long before the rear? I started accommodating for this by adjusting my lifting block situation. For one, I didn't like how gummy the lifting blocks were on the frame pads and wanted to shore them up a bit, but I also wanted the rear block to be a little higher than the front to give it an even lift at all four wheels.
I now use a small rubber block and a piece of 2x4 in front, with the large rubber block and piece of 1x4 in the rear. It gives a perfectly even lift (on stock suspension) so that all four tires leave/touch the ground at the same time. Makes it much better when I'm lowering it down to torque the wheel bolts and can stop it at one point where all four tires are on the concrete enough to keep the wheel from spinning, but not enough to throw off my fitment.
