2 door Tahoe 3" Body lift questions?

[wicked2000]

I did a 3" body lift from summit and the only things I did install was the steering linkage which I think I didnt need. Also put the bracket for brake lines that goes on the driver side. Easy install. Get the gap guards makes a difference. Step bars cover up the frame pretty good. Helps out if you clean out the frame and apply a coat of paint. You will also have to move up the rear bumper or it will have ugly gap.

How exactly do you pick up the back bumper? I was thinking I would just drill some new holes in the frame. Is there a better way?

yeah i was wondering the same thing because i have a friend that wants to sell me a 3' bl that wasnt installed for 60$ and i was worried about the bumper sagging

I had to make some cuts on the frame. I then welded it and added a bolt on each side. i will try and post some pics

Wicked2000, I see a little more than a body lift under that truck. What other suspension parts do you have on that truck? Looks nice, kind of the direction I want to go on my 96.

I'm sure the guy that hasn't been on since last July is going to respond right away...

The answer can be found in a quick search.
