Bracket lift info
Hello guys, i have search here and in the web and all i get is information on kits. My question is how the bracket lift works and a picture. In all the pictures what i see is a kit and dont know exactly what is the bracket. I want to lift the front to match the 1 leaf int he back. Thanks!!

Well the bracket part is a part that looks like your differential crossmember. It bolts in and effectively lifts your truck by lowering the lower control arms away from the body.
then the knuckles come in. They match the length of the lift.
in all honestly, bracket lifts dont get you any ground clearance, except breakover and rear axle.
However, the larger tires that you fit on the truck will give you maybe 2 to 3 inches of clearance

Brackets are just spacers to move the components down in which in return gives you more room in the wheel well for bigger tires. That is just a generic description. This is for the front suspension.

Everything is a bracket/ spacer. There are spacers that allow you to mount the diff in its new position, from the old one...
And there are spacers that drop the new lower control location down 4", and spacers that allow the upper ball joint to used in its stock location. Only, the hubs were moved down along with the lower control arms and front diff...
Bracket, spacers... It's all the same thing.
