ok here it is plain and simple!
a job that should have been 8 to 10 hours took 20 hours.
1)no brackets or no talk of anything about the rear bumper!i drilled new holes in the frame and moved bumper up.
2)front bumper brackets imposible to install if you have stock fog lights!so i drilled out the frame 3 inches higher and mounted the stock ones!
ps)what a pain in the azz when bumper is on to get the bolts in!
3)steering extention not the best way of doing it with two u metal stock welded together compared to performance accessory with a add on at the steering box!
this all comming from a add from a dodge truck accessoies book!in quotes typing from the book in its own words!
"3 inch body lift
the most complete body lift kits available including steering adapters,steering shafts,bumper relocation brackets and or devices,brakeline extentions,steering spacers,gas tank filler extentions,bed support brackets and radiator hose extentions"!
had to use some washers in between the filler neck and plastic mount to the bed just to get it to fit and it is still taught!the stock lower hose is ok so no beef there.
BOTTOM LINE GO WITH PERFORMANCE ACCESSORIES 3" BODY LIFT LEARN FORM MY MISTAKE!
