25mm body lift for an 80

Post by rocksteps_hero »

does anyone have any links to the hows and the do nots or advice excluding the fact it needs engineering.

The reason for 25mm is I do not want to have to cut my sticks nor be to high with my 5" spring lift and 49 swampers complete with a 502ci keith black just to say the least....

i have heard its very difficult to do a body life on a 80 why not just get some bigger springs?

A body lift can be used to get more clearance for the engine in the engine bay.
Just guessing but thats probably why he wants a body lift with a 502 :shock: .

ROCKSTEPS HERO - or should that be "pebble goddess. the only thing that needs a 25mm lift is the one you currently have 2 fingers wrapped around. I suggest you release your little weapon a surrender yourself to reality, 49's & 502ci what do you take us for......

Only a pain if he's already got the bar work set for standard.
Also I wouldnt bother for only 1"
If it's that hardcore then bring out the gasaxe. :twisted:
