Body lift options

Post by southernzr5 »

I know most everyone uses the Performance Accessories 192 body lift, but has anyone tried the Zone kit? They appear to be the same looking kit, just didn't know if there were pros or cons to either one.

i used a PA 3 inch kit from summit racing sold as 91-93 ext cab 3 inch body lift.. paid 92 dollars for it.. I'm sure they all use the same nylon blocks rated at 60000 osi or what ever it is...

I'm thinking about getting a few gallons of roll on bed liner from a company called Durabak they advertise on there website entire vehicles done with the product offer 18 or more colors.. they have 2 shades of red one is almost identical to victory red and the other is a much brighter red.. and yes that's with the 3 inch body lift.. i modified the mounting brackets for the step bars to bring them up... drilled a new hole on the rear brace and flipped the bracket on the front and elongated the hole a bit
