body lift completed

just finished the body lift in my truck, it now has total 7inches of lift. looks cool. i need to make some brackets for the rear bumper. and extend my shifters so it all works right. the boot ripped while trying to shift so there is a large vent hole in my floor lol. ill try to get some pictures up soon.

you have blocks? you dont have rubber cylinders? well since the bed isnt sitting on the frame anymore, you might want to consider welding something between the bed and frame in the middle of your wheel well.

Yeah, the kit I used came with 4 metal spacers to support the middle of the bed. Just tacked them to the frame I carry heavy crap ever so often so...

Get some pictures!!
