GQ body lift with an auto

Post by mick355 »

I've been reading the bible and faqs on body lifts but can't see anything about autos. Has anyone done one? And are there any nasty supprises to encounter with the auto. Reason for the lift is my 33" MTRs hit the factory flares on full tilt and the missus doesn't want me to start hacking at the guards, cheers.

With a bodylift the flares will be ok but will still rub on the front mud flaps and thats with 35"s.

they mount where ever you put the holes! They dont have mounting holes in them when you buy them.

Yep just fix on with self drillers, really easy. I got them on the rear of my truck and they're great. I pissed my rear mudflaps off too.
