Another Body Lift completed!

Post by BobbleSmitty »

Well, it took my Dad and I about 18 hours to complete the entire body lift. I still need to make some gap gaurds and drill new holes to raise the westin safari light bar. Didn't really run into any major problems at all. The truck runs great and feels more like a truck now. I will get a picture posted once I get my spacers, 30's, and black stainless steel exhaust tips installed.

Thanks for all of your help guys.

Congrats on the BL :thumb:

Would those tips come in 3" and where did you locate them?

If you're looking for a good variety of the black chrome stainless steel tips try StylinConcepts. That's where I got mine. Mine are 18" long Slash cut 3" outlet and a 2.5" inlet. They're very unique!

Won't work, I looked there :D

I need ONE shorter and it needs to be 3" I/O. I am dancing dangerously close to my daystar shackles with my exhaust now. This may be all for naught. anyway, because the boss had some wild money management plans that she got out of some womens magazine just before she went to work an hour ago :roflmao:
