Body Lifts

[The Wagprocrastinator]

What all has to be done to install a 3inch body lift. I hear a lot about hockey pucks and boat rollers. How exactly does this work. Just change out the body bushings with bigger ones?

Essentially a body lift is nothing more than spacers added on top of the body mount bushings.

Go to my site and read my bodylift page....

radiator lowered
linkage lengthened (tranny and T-case)
and some have Ebrake line to contend with...

I got a preformance accessories kit. The biggest problem was getting some of the bolts out, River Beast has a article on this.

I didn't relocate my radiator, lengthen my t-case linkage or lenghten e brake. But i did make bumper brakets and lengthen the trans linkage and everything seems great.

Anybody have a recomended type of spacer to make? And i forgot, how many mounts does a 74 have?

Used to be a Metallica fan. The nick was stuck on me when I was in the Navy. To make a long story short, it involves an article in the local newspaper which included the phrase 'extensive facial damage'.
My buddies starting calling me Damage, then, eventually Damage, Inc.

Where in Montana are you from? I grew up north of Harlem.
