Couple questions about SJR lift kit

Scott if your browsin the forum by all means answer away, otherwise if anyone else has any experience/input with these lift kits let me know

So I go the ea81 4/4 lift kit, and installed everything in the back no problem yesterday, lift kit is absolutely freakin awesome.

So tonight I am going to start on the front, and a couple things dawned on me.

First off, its an auto still, has anyone had to deal with extending the auto linkage? is it as simple as I am imagining it in my head?

Secondly, I got to thinkin this on my way home.. The engine cradle and struts are getting dropped 4 inches, the radius rod mounts are getting dropped 3 inches. so my thought is.. the transmission crossmember is mounted to those radius rod mounts. -Therefore the rear of the trans will be dropped 3 inches. -Therefore, the whole powertrain will be pointing down in the front. How does that work out? Wont that cause issues with reading the fluid levels, changing u-joint angle, etc...??
