Tow hooks going to fit?
 

Hopefully someone who already has a bodylift can help me out. I am going with the PA 2" and I want to know if I am going to have to cut the lower part of my bumper to get the hooks to fit, or do I have to make brackets to drop them down? I would like to know this before I start so I can figure out what I am going to do?

Nah, the hooks will come out right below the plastic bumper valance.

Thanks, I just didn't want it to turn into one of those things that turns into a pain when you think you are done.

how much do your mt's rub with just 2" crank/shackles?

I honestly cant tell you they are laying next to the truck on the floor of the garage. My whole truck has been ripped apart for a couple weeks or so since I started this project.

I have a 2000 4 door Blazer and when i put my 2 inch PA body lift on i had to cut some off of my front bumper, so you may have to. If these pictures work,here are some pictures of it after i cut it and dont really mind itbecause it gave mea little more front clearance.

hotdamn did a beaver chew at that???? oh and i hope thats a real old pic??? u need front tires like last month

wouldn't it be easier to get spacers and longer bolts for the tow hooks, little bit more asthetically pleasing to look at too.

haha yea im about to get 4 new bfg all terrainsin a few weeks.

Wow, those cuts look really rough. Many have said that they will fit, so I am going to see. If it doesn't then I am going to use a Dremel to slightly trim it to fit. Thanks though.

I wouldnt trim it. Get new hooks that will hang down below the bumper. I think I paid ~25 for these hooks; Pretty sure Pro Comp made em. I dont have any specific pics of em, but heres a few I found in my PB that show em. What I did was use an existing hole from the original hooks and drilled it out to fit the bigger bolt I was using with these hooks. Once I bolted the first bolt in, I drilled in the pilot hole in the second hole on thehook(since they are shorter than the factory ones). Unbolted and finished drilling it out. Then bolted back on.

Dont mind my bent frame in this pic, its what happends when you tug on a stuck K5.

Damn those are really ****ty pics now that I look at em. If anyone wants better ones I can go take some.

RE: Tow hooks going to fit?
 

Can someone tell me what size the bolts are for the front tow hooks and the hitch in the rear ? I was wanting some input on the size of bolts and how to mount them without cutting up the valance.
