do you really have to take out all the brackets wires and stuff like you said at the begging of the video .. im gunu do this to my dodge so i would like to know .. because it dont seem like something that has to be done .. but i could be wrong

great how to guys. five stars for the harbor frieght grinder. Too many people assume its junk but my grinder and electric impact are 4 years old and made it through a house fire. it would be great if you had a how to on the 1st gen durango.
video just one question why cut the frame for the bumpers and the square block by the back wheel are the the same size and the round tubing blocks can u let me know my email address is littlebuddy2000@hotmail.com
Do you have to cut the bumper thing on all trucks, i want one for my ram but i dont have a cutting tool like that. My in law is a mechanic and can weld, do you think we could do it? thanks guys, and nice video
@WestCarolina1861 Even someone with an accent as thick as mine can recognize someone who's sister is also their mother... and the resulting low IQ. Body mounts do not connect to the suspension. How exactly do they effect ride quality?
@frogaliscious because of the bushings, and the higher center of gravity.....If you thought about shit before u typed your comment i wouldn't have to explain it to you. try removing the stock bushings on your vehicle and see if it rides different. tires aren't connected to the suspension, yet they effect ride, so does alignment and a shit ton of other stuff. i wouldnt worry about his IQ, because you a fucking idiot yourself.
@chughes44 My poor little rectum fingered friend. What you type is nonsense. I don't need to "try" anything, I have already done it. A bodylift has nothing to do with tires or suspension. The cab bolts to the frame with hard plastic bushings (as you call them) already. Adding in a spacer does not effect that. The stock suspension is left intact to provide the same ride it always has. Pull your finger out of your butt next time you decide to type something.
@chughes44 I could be 2 years old and wouldn't change the fact that you don't know what you're talking about. I have installed many bodylifts, as well as having ran one on my current truck for the last 4 years. The ride stays the same. Period.
@chughes44 Im not the biggest fan of body lifts but they DO NOT change the ride quality (if you make sure to tighten them down) And if you're so certain that they change the ride, then explain how.
Haha your the one who has cletus's in your ass and bubba's in your mouth with skretch beating off in the corner watching. I had to stop the video the first time watching it cause I was laughing to much at your redneck accent. Go paint a confederate flag on your truck and while your at it put in a Dukes of Hazzard horn in ya fuckin idiot.
Body lifts ain't dangerous but hard on body mount... I'll tell you what's dangerous, putting lift blocks on the front... That'd be a good way to die... Lift kit failure
"That's Cletus's truck der, thats bubbas in whate and thats uh skretchs right there at the end". The title should say "Dumbass Redneck Body Lifts Vol. 1"
@billybeeer1 I won't lie to you, they can be a pain the butt. Spray the fasteners with PB Blaster the day before you start. And loosen the steering shaft bolts before you lift the body, that will help pull it apart.
This is THE best video I've seen on youtube, much respect, kept me laughing and truck looks good man. I'm about to do a 3'' body lift on a 92 f150, hope it turns out as good as yours and is as much fun
I installed this same kit (Performance Accessories) on my Chevy Silverado...Looks great as an end result, but beware everybody...rusty bolts are not your friend!
dang i wanted one of these but im not sure i could do it by myself and i dont know many people that are bright enough to help me. i wonder how much it typically costs to get this done?
nice trucks you guys got there i was wonderin can i do a 3 inch suspension lift and a 3 inch body lift on my ram without havin to change anything like brake lines driveshafts er anything like that?
wow man I installed a 5.5 in susp lift into my 04 ram 1500 and it was way easier than this.... but guess what.. its not big enough for me so now i have to bite the bullet and do the body lift as well.... shit
@CJorundson I hear that. This was my buddies truck and I'm pretty sure he's planning a suspension lift eventually. I've got a 3" body lift plus a 6" suspension lift on my truck.
Great video, going to buy the kit after watching this video, I put the 2" leveling kit from suspension connection on my truck myself only $74 and some tax. Only question, do you have to pull the fuse or any fuses that are linked to the air bags? It would have been fun to do a video for the leveling kit, but I cuss to much, LOL.
hey i got a 97 2 wd ecss i am goin for a true pre runner style on with the two in. body lift i am goin to use steel pipe from work an goin to use coil spring spacers an blocks in the back for hopefully a total of around 5 inches of lift what do you think anout this set up? an i am a welder an plan on makin tube front an rear bumpers for air tanks any ideas to make it better?
hello, I'm from Brazil. got 2500 dodge ram heavy duty 2008 model. I have to modify the support of the front bumper?? really need to cut the chassis?
I could pass measures to block all "lift ""??? I modified the suspension on mine, put a lift of 4 inches. I want to lift the cabin with this body lift too. I'm using tires 37x12.5 r17. I intend to use 40x13.5 r17.
hey man how did you put ur front and back bumper back on because i had a local shop do my body lift and the front bumper is tilted about a half inch and the back has a 2and a half inch gap inbetween it
hey man i just askin ur opinion, i got a z71 and its got a 3inch body lift but i was thinkin bout buyin 4 inch blocks for the rear and torsion key for 3 inches in front
you think thats good idea im just tryin to save money haha aint got all that green stuff
Iv've got a 1999 Nissan Frontier, and I'm thinking about getting a 3" body lift for it. Would you recommend doing it myself, or having pros do it. I know a little bit about trucks, but not a wholelot. Thanks
lol nice vid sharp truck, 1 question though, when u put like a 3 inch body lift do yuo gotta lengthen any of that stuff like ur steering column or any of the wires u said u have to disconnect? or does that usually reach?
ive searched high and low for the damn bumper relocation brackets and cant find them anywhere. i have an 04 ram as well, and i finished the lift, but now the bumpers sit 3 inches lower than the truck! help!!!!!!!!

Ok well i have a question, i am doing a 3inch on my K1500 GMC. It should be very simmilar to this correct? except for bolt positions. That and do i need to weld the blocks into place right away or can i get away with driving it somewhere that will for me? sorry for the dumb questions im 18 and this is my first body lift. I can use all the help i can get

what kind of receiver hitch do you have to install, the hitch i have now mounts to the frame and bumper. if i move them apart from one and other i don't believe it will work. it looks like the frame tube will sit down to far from the bumper. any suggestions. would have any pics of the back bumper with a hitch installed on it. thanks
Will i have to relocate the exhaust tips to line the up with the rear bumper or witl the bumper stay in the same place? on the 09 the bumper is molded so that the exhaust tips are inlay-ed in the bumper. that's the only i am not sure of. didn't know if you have any ideas? thanks
Have you found any steering stabilizers for this truck? Any tricks to make them ride better with big tires? I am running 10in lift and 37 inch tires on my 2002 1500.
@dconner50 No to driveshaft and tcase. You will need to make/install some relocation brackets (possibly) for things like brake line manifolds, trans lines, etc. You may need to extend your steering shaft to accomodate the lift.
I have a 84 dodge w150 and i have 4 inch rear suspension lift on the truck, and i intend to do a 3-4 inch body lift is there anything that i need to consider ?
im installing a three inch body lift on an 02 ranger is this gonna be harder than your truck? im not gonna pay someone else, that costs like 500 bucks so i gotta do it myself
so i been looking for a body lift for my dodge do i need to buy extra parts like the bumber brakets i seen you cutting the bumber why were you doing that thanks any help would be greatly appreciated
@pinoytat93 no extra parts needed. You have to massage the mounts so the bottom radius of the bumper clears the frame a bit. Nothing major though. Ten minutes of work.
I was considering putting a 3in on my 03 1500 dodge and I was going to do it myself. And it looks farely easy except for the bumper part. Why did you need to cut it?
@555Wayne IT HAS TO BE CUT FOR A BRACKET THAT RAISES THE BUMPER. AS STOCK THE BUMPER IS MOUNTED TO THE FRAME. BUT THIS BEING ONLT A BODY LIFT THE FRAME IS STILL IN THE SAME PLACE AS IT WAS SO YOU HAVE TO USE A BRACKET TO MAKE THE BUMPER RAISE TO THE PLACE ITS SUPPOSED TO BE ON THE FRONT OF THE BODY
How long did the whole process take?

what kind of receiver hitch do you have to install, the hitch i have now mounts to the frame and bumper. if i move them apart from one and other i don't believe it will work. it looks like the frame tube will sit down to far from the bumper. any suggestions. would have any pics of the back bumper with a hitch installed on it. thanks

@hbessey817 I just have the mopar receiver. The PA lift came with all the appropriate bracketry to accomodate the receiver, frame, and bumper.

Will i have to relocate the exhaust tips to line the up with the rear bumper or witl the bumper stay in the same place? on the 09 the bumper is molded so that the exhaust tips are inlay-ed in the bumper. that's the only i am not sure of. didn't know if you have any ideas? thanks

Great video! You did a great job!
Have you found any steering stabilizers for this truck? Any tricks to make them ride better with big tires? I am running 10in lift and 37 inch tires on my 2002 1500.
Thanks

would a body lift like this require any driveshaft, transfer case, transmission, brakeline, or steering modifications?
dconner50 1 year ago
@dconner50 No to driveshaft and tcase. You will need to make/install some relocation brackets (possibly) for things like brake line manifolds, trans lines, etc. You may need to extend your steering shaft to accomodate the lift.

im installing a three inch body lift on an 02 ranger is this gonna be harder than your truck? im not gonna pay someone else, that costs like 500 bucks so i gotta do it myself
kuriencary25 1 year ago
@kuriencary25 I've never done one on a ranger so I can't say... but I imagine it's pretty much the same procedure. Just go for it!

so i been looking for a body lift for my dodge do i need to buy extra parts like the bumber brakets i seen you cutting the bumber why were you doing that thanks any help would be greatly appreciated
pinoytat93 1 year ago
@pinoytat93 no extra parts needed. You have to massage the mounts so the bottom radius of the bumper clears the frame a bit. Nothing major though. Ten minutes of work.

Yea did u have to buy any things els, like springs, wires, ect.
SILENTKILL1111 1 year ago
@SILENTKILL1111 nope
frogaliscious 1 year ago
when you installed the body lift did you have to get new longer springs or shocks or anything?
also ive heard when putting on a body lift you have to also put on a leveling kit...is this true or can i just get a body kit and be done with it?

I was considering putting a 3in on my 03 1500 dodge and I was going to do it myself. And it looks farely easy except for the bumper part. Why did you need to cut it?
555Wayne 1 year ago
@555Wayne IT HAS TO BE CUT FOR A BRACKET THAT RAISES THE BUMPER. AS STOCK THE BUMPER IS MOUNTED TO THE FRAME. BUT THIS BEING ONLT A BODY LIFT THE FRAME IS STILL IN THE SAME PLACE AS IT WAS SO YOU HAVE TO USE A BRACKET TO MAKE THE BUMPER RAISE TO THE PLACE ITS SUPPOSED TO BE ON THE FRONT OF THE BODY
