yeah yeah yeah...it was late and dusk was setting in..I will get some up tomorrow morning after I run some errands. But atleast its on. Im gonna have to do the mod for raising the rear bumper. The front looks acceptable. you can really notice the gap in the rear though. But thats only cosmetic and easily fixed.

at least it finally arrived. I was looking forward to helping you install it on sat, hoping to add a BL to my list of wants after i see how hard it is to install!

It wasn't brain surgery by any stretch. I just had an insufficient jack and was a little more cautious as a result. But, its not a hard install at all. If I was to help someone else do one it would not take more than an hour and a half absolute tops...

Pics of the 2" Body Lift
This is the front view where the harder of the mounts to install, since it had to be higher than 2" to account for the stock bolt shaft at the bottom.

Front view, you can see the front spacing is not significant, when the winch goes on it will hide that more.

The rear spacing is more evident.

There is two three that I am aware of. One is the plastic cover peices that PA sells in a kit to cover the wheel well and exposed bumper seems. Anorther is a bumper relocation bracekt that BDS has, but I havent seen it yet. And the last one is using the top frame mount for the bolts as the bottom and re-drilling new ones to raise the bumper an inch....I want to see the BDS one first.
