Do you already have all the parts and literally need help installing them?

Or deciding what to do first?
Wait... What?

The dual cases and lift should be done first and together so that driveshafts only need to be worked once.  I prefer to have the control that comes with the low gears before the addition of lockers that can get you into more difficult situations where gears would be a significant  benefit.  Obviously, just my opinion.
