want to start my runner with a 2 inch body lift but not sure if i have to add on for the shifters or anything else.  does anyone know if theres anything special i should look into before doing it

I don't know about the 96 but my 86 shifter had some adjust ability. I put a 2" on mine and was able to adjust it enough but sometimes it would bump up into 2nd gear. My brother had an 87 and put a 3" on his and we had to weld in a sleeved extention to make his work. Last I checked nobody sells a body lift for autos for this reason. Other than that they work fine on an auto.

also, get a good quality lift..... such as from above


don't do any hillbilly, hockey puck stacking crap

It's not "hillbilly", it's Canadian Mountain-man!
