Body lift question.

I did end up buying the performance accessories BL. I am going to make the gap guards and rear bumper mounts just to save some money. Thanks for the help.

Going to start my body lift tomorrow, and was wondering what road blocks everyone else has ran into so I can be prepared for those if they happen to me? Also Will the body lift effect my clutch when lifted?

Rusted body bolts. You'll want a LONG cheater pipe on a breaker bar.

An extra hand comes in handy getting the steering extension on.

One of my bed blocks needed modifying with a dremel to clear a rivet on the frame rail. My truck is a 1994 and had to unbolt a ground wire that goes from back of engine to the power distributor thing on passenger side firewall. Unhooked brake lines from the frame under driver side fender. I used a wooden 4x4 on my jack to lift the cab high enough. Body mounts were awful so I replaced them with the energy suspension kit.

For the rivet problem i just used one of the smaller blocks and you dont even need the steering extension

Since I could not find anybody that did a body lift with a manual tranny that could give any info. The body lift did not effect my clutch at all and still goes into all gears just fine. The stick is just 3 inches lower than normal.
