2" Coil over spacers and shackles.

Took 1 hour 20 mins.

In order to remove the 2 piece stock rear shackle, you are suppose to remove the bolts from the outside of the shackle assembly, pull the outer plate off, then remove the inner plate with the bolts welded on, out. Well, the exhaust pipe gets in the way, and even after removing a few exhaust hanger bolts, it still wouldn't budge. Now this is normal from all the others that have installed this kit on the X forum im on, and some have just used like a come along to forcefully pull the inner plate/bolts out. Eh... thats boring, this is much better
didn't get a pic of the exhaust side... but this is what we did




Here it is all done, ill post more pics tomorrow when its light out and I can get better angles, pics don't really do justice ya know, its a nice lil increase in height, lil more girth. im happy with it



just gotta get it aligned now as I have some decent positive camber from the front spacers.

Nice thing about this lift, dont really need to change anything on it, maybe rear shocks eventually. I already went from stock 265-65-17 tires to 265-70-17. so, i wont be seeing a decrease in gas mileage as a result of having to put on larger tires, since i've already done that.

 

so you barely fit in garages with the box before, and now your 2in more off the ground?


I like it though

 

Yea. O well. I go in a p. garage once every 6-7 months, haha.. not to worried about that, If i know ill be in an area where it might happen, ill take the basket off, its hella easy & can be done in about 2 mins

 

I think I'm gonna get a basket for my next car since I'm pretty sure (80%) it'll be a Durango so it will look alright with a basket and some off-road accessories.

 

yea that'd look good.

I have a good set of roof top thule accessories. i have the basket, obviously... then some 450 crossroad adapters with 58" crossbars (cut to about 54"), two sets of board clamps (2 board and 4 board), and a cargo box (frontier model)

For the winter ill be takin the basket off and using the crossbars, set of board clamps (whichever will fit best) and the cargo box for random ish while goin to the mt all the time

 

Balinnnn'!

You need some manlier tires now.

 

yea. someday. just put these on.

all terrains.

mt. snowflake - winter traction device.

work for me for now.

but some meats would look more ballin'

and yea, meats is clatsop county talk for mud-terrain tires.

 

nice I want some board racks too when I get whatever I get so I can free up space inside for people and regular gear

 

Yea man, itll be nice this year with the board rack / cargo box set up. that way I can have the boards outta the way on top, then use the box for boots and gear, specially afterwards if they are wet or whatever, keep the inside from stankin and foggin up easier.

 

The meats I would personally recommend are Mickey Thompson Baja Claws. It would look badass with those on it.
