Just curious, has anyone done a pic heavy install of a body lift, or a youtube video. I'm not really a seasoned Mechanic, but I have twisted a wrench or 2. I just don't want to get in over my head and would like to have some kind of reference to go to if I have any questions.

Thanks!

Why not just do a suspension lift? I have never understood wanting to show more frame.

It's not hard. Don't let Derek be a downer it's decent way to lift. Gotta remove both bumpers it its pretty straight foreword. Jack one side up then the other

I am mainly worried about the steering, and fuel neck. I would just like to have some sort of reference to look at if I get in over my head.

For those in the future who may run across this, I went to the Zone Off-Road website and checked out their 3" body lift kit, and the instructions are there in PDF format. Their instructions are incredibly in depth and loaded with pictures. I'm thinking that is the way I am going to go........and I will make a thread.

Like I said its straight foreword. Easy just takes a bit of time. The instructions helped me a bit when I did mine

It's really easy, if you can change your oil you can body lift the tahoe. Just loosen all the mounts take your bumpers off jack up one side put the new spacer in and repeat for the other side
