About how much would a 3in. body lift with
31 tires on a 2wd v6 cost if I have it professionally done?

hey man,just do the body lift yourself!!it is so simple!!!i bought the pa 3" body lift studied and highlighted a lot of important procedures then i wrote on the metal brackets with a sharpie what they were so when i started there would be no confusion!!...then grabbed my cajones in one hand and my wrench in the other and did it!!its simple,and you will save about three hundred dollars that a shop will charge you,well thats what they wanted to do mine for,thats way way to much!!

Thanx for all the info. Didn't think it would be so easy. By the way, what exactly is included in the body kit as far as blocks and all that?

the body lift kit consists of brackets to relocate your rear and front bumpers,steering wheel shaft extendor ,the 3" blocks for the body mounts,overload spacers for the bed (after lifted)zip ties to secure loose brake lines after lift,a transfer case extender,im not sure how to install that since mine is 2wd,ive heard you have to weld it though...i could be wrong,that step i skipped.a new spare tire bracket to remount your spare tire,thats about it!!its really simple just follow the instructions,and dont rush and you will do fine,and give yourself extra time,like a whole weekend just in case!!it took me 9 hours to complete my lift!! enjoy
