Default Installing DTE Strut Brace?

Ordered one this week. Do you have to drop any of the drivetrain to install the brace? I have access to a lift, is it much of a hassle to install.

Thanks,

Bill

The drivetrain does not need to be removed to install our product and typical installation time for a novice is 3-5 hours depending on your level of mechanical abilities and your provisions for lifting the vehicle. The instructions included with the kit are very detailed with informative text and clear photos.

Regards,
