Yeah man, I do not recommend 4 wheel parts. They are one of the places that have added to my mightmare and headache.

Hey willjones (or anyone for that matter),
when you do the bodylift, do you think you could take some pics and slap together a "how-to"?

There's already a how-to with pics on a body lift install. I'll see if I can dig the link up for you.

How much did you crank the bars? Oh and BTW I decided against the BFGs and went with a set of the grabber AT2s. They were 200 cheaper for the set and I also think that its a great looking tire that has a ton of great reviews. I should hopefully finish this fiasco this weekend.

If you're asking me about my bars, I went up 7.5 turns on the drivers side, and 6.5 on the passengers. But with my pretty much dead shocks and the brush guard up front, it only got me a little over an inch. And I still had to trim a bit due to my non-stock rims

I got it from EverythingSUV.com (lowest priced Surco supplier I could find). It's the 40x60 one, but I see now they've got a 4' tall and a 5' tall one..I have the 5'. Also you will need a set of mounting clamps to grip the GM rack (runs like $80). It'll hold a couple hundred pounds up there, a very good quality rack

Yea I've got pretty extensive dimensions for anyone with access to a welder. I just don't have that talent, so $300 wasnt a bad deal for me
