it looked better when the revtek lift was new. My front coils have faded a lot. I'm waiting to get some money to buy some new ones

Whos "Steve"?????
anyways i finished the 3" body lift this past saturday. We worked from 12 to 8 so it wasnt that bad. One of my buddys brought over his air tools which made things alot easier. We had to saw off 2 things on the bumper (didnt make a difference on the apperence because it was on the inside of the bumper) that where in the way of the new brackets you have to bolt on. Also the bolt right behind the front wheels was really weird as in all the other body mounts came with bump stop things under them and those 2 on the sides didnt so like the bolt only had so much thread on the end and to much so if we would have screwd the nut on it wouldnt have touched anything it would just go up to the smooth part of the bolt. so we had to make a run to the hardware store and get 2 new ones and it worked fine. kinda hard to explain that but i can take pictures if anyone has any questions about it. didnt raise the Radiator any. just took the bottem shroud thing off or whatever if is it it seems like its gonna work fine. You can definiatly see alot of the frame since its raised up 3" now but i dont really mind 2 much. I might put my running boards back on even though i like it way better without them. I didnt really wanna have to put sliders on because its more $$ and im not going to be taking it off road much at all since its only 2wd. so it would just be for looks. anyways ill have some pic's up soon. I'm waiting on my wheels to get in this wensday to put on my 33's because right now it looks like im riding on toothpics. ill have a before with a stock pic and then now posted thurs hopefully so check back then.

cya
