Its either that or the BDS body lift. Whichever price works for you

 

is one better than the other?

 

The directions in the BDS are better than the PA kit, but you can download those for free. Also the BDS kit comes with lift blocks to raise your tow hooks up to the top of the frame rails, keeping them in the same hole in the front valence. The PA kit leaves you to have to cut the valence, do without tow hooks, or get creative

Other than that I believe they are pretty much the same.

 

couldnt you use some square steel tubing to put on the top of the frame rails and mount the tow hooks on top of them?
would that work

 

you would need longer bolts but i would think it would work. I plan on removing my lower valence anyway to clear bigger tires

 

Yea thats the idea....but the time and effort to measure and cut, vs the kit coming with them premade..

 

so are you talking about the kit from 4wheelparts vs the synergy offroad kit? jw as i was debating getting the synergy kit but if i cant have tow hooks, ill get the 4wp

 

i believe he was talking about http://www.bds-suspension.com/kits/9228 vs the PA kit the OP linked, personally when I do mine in the spring I plan on using the BDS kit it comes with everything you need (with the exception of steering column extension for my year) just seems less hassle imho. Many people on here have used the PA kit tho so basically it comes down to personal preference and if you want to fab a thing or 2 yourself or just have it ready to bolt on.

 

not meaning to thread jack, but last question. is the kit on 4wheelparts for the 96 good, or is it crap cause i am ordering it tomorrow as its on sale for $130. just wanna know if it will be good before i order. and is it easy for someone thats never done it before (with help of a few friends) or should i look into what a shop will charge? thanks and sorry
