brumby_the_uterus Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 I was just wondering how hard it is to put a body kit in the brumby/brat? And if anyone had any info on puting one in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorganM Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 Lifting it up with a body lift kit is fairly easy. BYB 3" and Scoripoin 2" lifts are the way to go. It was all designed to bolt right into your vehicle. Figuring out exacly where/how everything fits is the toughest part. The directions are more like a list of hints, but that is the fun part right? Unless you have rusty bolts; man those can be the WORST If you buy one of the pre-made lift kits. I would bet you could have it done between 16 - 20 hours of labor. This would even give you time for problems. A rust free vehicle would shave hours off !_! Lift that BRAT UP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calebz Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 Yeah.. that one was trouble free. The first EA82 one I did had its share of problems, and neither of us had done an EA82 before.. that took about 12 hours. which was ok, except we were expecting it to take 7-8 hours.. or, more to the point, my wife was expecting it to take 7-8 hours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooinater Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 it took about 8-9 hours for us to do my first wagon. that's 1-2 people actually working on the car at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezapar Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 The fastest one was 4 of us with hand tools and a PK/BYB 4/3. We had Ken's brat back on the ground in about an hour and a half. For your first time, expect it to take a weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
