Conversation Between appstateblazer and tkebillybob

The body lift brackets connect to the frame and the bumper in the same exact places as the hitch does. I cut the hitch brackets so that they can still mount to the frame but do not go inside the bumper. I then bolted the body lift bracket to the inside of the bumper. Then bolted the hitch bracket to the body lift bracket and finally bolted both to the frame. I upgraded the hardware to grade 8 for added pulling strength.
