body lifts

[blt2crl]

I want to put a 2 in body lift on my 79 WT (76 WT cherokee axle swap) wagoneer. I want to clear the 36 in swampers. Is there any major problems to worry about? How long does it take usually to slap one of these puppies on?

Biggest problem is the back two mounts. They tend to rust bad there and the nut that is welded in the body channel tends to break lose and spin.

Any tips on getting around this problem. Would a heavy soaking of wd40 help?

Wd might work although there are much better alternatives out there to use. There is a product out there called "Blaster" that is supposed to work pretty good.
There has been a raging debate over these type of penetrants a few weeks back. Try doing a search and see what you come up w/.
Whichever you choose, it will be wise to spray liberally and wait several days to allow plenty of time to soak. And take your time! http://www.ifsja.org/ubb/smile.gif
good luck,

I've used "PB Blaster" with great results. Another good one is Kyroil but its a little harder to find around here.
