bjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj

how are ya
well i have an early niss 88 mod and have no problems with my 2 and a half inch lift at all
i think this problem that you have brought up a few times is not that big
if ya lift is done right no 1 and if you thro a spaner on the bolts every now and then to make sure they are tight.
my turck gets used and have never had a problem
the only 1 i know of that has had a problem is a mates 1 that was not done right from the start and came lose ...............

:shocked!: there is 1 thing that most people dont do and that is to trim down the sleve that gos thro the orig rubber about 5 mm so that your mount can pull tight on the allready flatened rubbers after doing this it is as tight as new
the other way is go and buy new rubbers that are not squashed

Ive seen it happen on seven trucks, all wagons, you see the wagons have a lot more body floating around than you or i do!

dude, i have a SWB same body lfit in three different trucks of mine, NEVER had a problem, nylon type, although id never do a bodylift again, if i did it to someone elses it would be steel, i just dont think the floor in the wagons can stand up to it!
