Re: Home made lift
Did you need to extend the bolts? Got any before and after pics? How much lift did it net?

Re: Home made lift
I used 1/2 inch longer grade 5 bolts. This lift with HD rear springs allow for 20 inch tires with no rubbing. Notice I put the block above the spring against the frame so you still have your front end alignment adjustments. I have an after photo with 20 inch tires.

Re: Home made lift
Nice! I used 1" boxed steel and the alignment pin fit perfect in the hole for it. I also used the longer bolts. In back I used flat steel and made my own 6" brackets.

How much lift did you get with 6” shackles? Was that center to center for the bolt holes? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
