I am talking about for the tank itself, not the fuel lines running to/from the engine. The fill and vent lines need to be extended and your kit should have come with the hoses to do it.
nope it didnt come with any hoses. The only thing i had to do was loosen one strap on the fuel tank and reroute one hose (i believe it was the vent line).


I guess maybe there is a difference between doing the lift between a ZR2 and a non-ZR2. Looks real good with the flares added on. Hell of a job to do by yourself, I commend you. I had two buddies helping me out.

Looks nice, you have a picture from the rear of the truck? I am wondering how a trailer hitch looks after raising the rear bumper with the body lift.

a lil bit of a space huh....

Oh wow...that's almost like a blocker beam on the back of a semi now

That's not as bad as I was expecting...Doesn't deter me from body lifting!

I'm in the process of trying to find a shop to build me a custom hitch for the body lift. Haven't found one yet that even wants to touch it, for liability reasons I'm guessing.

I can see why you wanted to do the body lift...man, those tires could really eat up a body. Very rugged and nice looking.

It should work, but it would have to be kind of custom like this tay's. They only come in 2 inch kits so you would have to get pucks from a 1st gen and swap them with the 2inch ones. With the 95-97 second gen's you dont have to extend the fuel filler neck line so you would only have to worry about lines, cables and other misc. things that come up with the 2inch kit.
