January 17, 201214 yr Jeff, Josh, and Rick from NWWO for helping me and "tobias" get a our rigs lifted and setup. Also for the learning experience, we caught on pretty quick on how to do the 2" lift and it was fun . We didn't get too many pics like we said we would but i think most of you guys get the idea lol . Right before we left : And here's some from the garage, Front Blocks: After it was done: Doing the rear: Didn't get any of Rogers build cause it was dark and outside but here's his: He found a new spot to play in lol: And mine: My dog decided to jump in this one haha: 205/60/15s My 215/75/15s that need to be drilled ! And last but not least ... My rear end Thanks guys ! Edited January 17, 201214 yr by Skylar
January 17, 201214 yr Looks great...don't mean to mom you, but you kids need to make sure you have properly placed jack stands under that car before you slide your arm and torso under the rear drum. If the stands are under there somewhere I can't see, then please disregard this message...and cool dog. [ Edited January 17, 201214 yr by ferox

January 17, 201214 yr Author It was good to meet you too Scott . And thanks . Can't wait to go test em out !
January 18, 201214 yr Author Here's a crappy pic of the 215's on . Got them drilled out ..... Let's just say I got ALOT of trimming to do..... Could I go with 3" blocks in the front to get it level and not have to drop the x-members ?
January 18, 201214 yr Could I go with 3" blocks in the front to get it level and not have to drop the x-members ? No..... BUT! You can extend your radius rods 1.25" to 1.5", this will help with clearance at the rear of the fender while turning. Also, look into folding the front of the fender up. I did that on my big wagon and it helped tons.... I happen to have some extra radius rods on the shelf. I'll see if I still have any of the right tubing to make a set.....
January 18, 201214 yr Author No..... BUT! You can extend your radius rods 1.25" to 1.5", this will help with clearance at the rear of the fender while turning. Also, look into folding the front of the fender up. I did that on my big wagon and it helped tons.... I happen to have some extra radius rods on the shelf. I'll see if I still have any of the right tubing to make a set..... Yeah I was just starting to think about that... And If you could do that for me man that would be awesome ! I don't have much experience with welding, just some oxyacetylene . So I couldn't do it myself lol And extending my radius rods isn't gonna make the tires stick out will it ? It just moves the ball joint forward not out ?
January 18, 201214 yr And extending my radius rods isn't gonna make the tires stick out will it? Nope It just moves the ball joint forward not out? Correct. You will have to enlarge one of the two holes that bolt the rod to the control arm. But that's no biggie.
January 18, 201214 yr Author Yeah that's no biggie . But yeah if you could make me a set that'd be great . Pm me with a price .
