Just found my instructions. Thats just the body mounts and the metal pad that comes off the frame that they are mounted on.

Ok, I see. My only problem is that I have 2 leftover spacers. I put 3 on each side of the cab, including the front one next to the radiator. then the bed recieved four on each side. Anyone know where the other two go. What size NAPA radiator hose length did you buy again?

21 inch universal fit. I cant remember the diameter. You should have 14 block all together. Do you have a quad cab or extended cab? Not that it makes any difference. Should be 3 on each side of the body and 4 on each side of the bed.

Correction, that should be 4 on each side of the cab and 4 on each side of the bed if you have a quad cab.

Thats right... 16 blocks (4 front/4 rear). The two skinny blocks go in the VERY rear of the bed. I didn't find this out until the bumper was already on.

Ok I am REALLY nervous now driving my truck. I placed spacers on the front bumper deal, under the front seats and at the back of the cab. The bed is perfect. I am unable to find this mysterious 4th block location. I hate to ask you this but could someone go look at their truck for me and describe to me where the 4th is. The truck looks very good now and I really like the added height. Soon I will be putting on 285's when $ permits. I will post pics soon on my webpage. www.geocities.com/jonmccuskey
Everything else went perfectly during the install, and that is why I am confused. If I only put in 6 blocks in the front and jacked the cab up as high as I did then, wouldnt it bind badly when I jacked it up? It went very smoothly. My truck is a 2002 4x4 CC The shifter needing to be bent is the only remaining mod, I am driving with no console. But I think I am going to build a custom one with more cupholders, I cant live with just one holder. Thank you for your help, without your guidance I wouldnt be experiencing the wonderful feeling of altitude sickness ;).

I just installed my body lift today and I have a Standard cab. If you have a standard cab then you only use 3 on each side of the cab and 4 on each side of the bed. If you have an extended or quad then you need the extra 2 for the front.
My lift looks great.
Im sure yours will to.

You will have 2 blocks left over when installing on RC or CC, the extra two are for QC only due to weight and length of cab. Unless there are 2 secret mounting points that they don't use at the factory:) I scoured the underneath of my truck for extra holes or mount tabs on frame and their are none.
