Interesting theory why the hockey pucks fail.

Good stuff here! Iit was a good write up. Is that driver side brake line something to be worried about with a solid axle truck, or just an ifs truck? Any other differences to look out for between ifs and SA body lifts? So, when you get done with the bed part, are the bolt threads sticking up into the bed? I was kind of confused there when you said you put them up from the bottom. Why can you not put them in from the top? :confused: Thank you for the information!

I figured you'd like this thread with all the banter going on about bodylifts.

Pretty much the same from a SA or IFS, as you lift just keep an eye on things give the jack a couple pumps at a time and then take a look, repeat this until you can fit the lift block in. If anything get tight find a way to free it up. Make sure to watch the parking brake cables too and make sure they don't get too tight, the o2 sensor and any electricals going into the trans.

No they will be in the slots under the bed, if you haven't noticed there are no exposed bolts in the bed they tie in underneath. If you take a look at where they bolt up you'll understand it perfectly.
