2" body lift took care of my fender rubbing issues. Check it out.

did you have to get longer bolts for the body mounts the step bars are mounted to? i was thinking about getting a body lift a while back, not sure if i will or not but my step bars came with longer bolts to replace the stock ones. i would think with a 2"spacer there, you would need even longer ones

To tell you the truth I'm not sure if there were any modifications needed for the step bars. It was a $300 kit that came w/ bumper relocation brackets. I had an offroad shop install it for me. They took care of all the modifications.

$500. Worth it to me considering I don't have the time to tinker w/ it, especially since it's my DD.

$500 including cost of body lift? Or an additional $500?

$299 for the kit, $500 labor. They said it would take about a day and a half, but they ended up finishing in 7 hours. The only problem is now I've opened a whole new can of worms. I'm looking at the tires thinking "man I bet I could have fit one more size up" and I'm wanting a brush guard now.
