i just ordered a PA 3 inch body lift and was wondering how long it is going to take to install...? another thing, i was wondering if stock size tires will look alright with the 3 inch body lift? if you have pics thatd b great. thanks in advance.

 

i think i saw on xtreme 4x4 that you can do it yourself in about 6-8 hours. i was thinkin bout doin the same thing so let me know how it works out for ya

 

alright, ill post pics from installing and and afterwards pic

 

It'll take about 8-10 hours. You can do it yourself a few pieces of 2x4's, a floor jack, and the scissor jack. Instructions suck, but you should be able to do it yourself just by looking. I have plenty of pictures, and meant to do a write up on how to do it with step-by-step pictures, but just haven't gotten to it, and probably won't anymore.

 

if you have never done something like this before you wont get it done in 6-8 hours the best thing to do is designate a weekend to do it. Take your time put all the parts you take off your truck in bags and label them and just take your time so your not fumbleing through things and looking for stuff i took my time and i didnt get frustrated or nothign cause when i went to get something there it was in one of the bags just my opion

 

thanks guys, do u think itll look stupid with stock size bf goodrich a/t?

 

who cares if its sittin on small tires for a while thats how mine was till i got some tires and wheels. see post "body lift pics". if anyone says anything tellem

 

me and 2 of my buddies did a body lift on his 02 ranger about a month ago. it took around 7 hrs and a few busted knuckles haha and mawk is right the instructions suck. just make sure to be heavy with PB blaster or something like that because broken body bolts r not fun.

 

Wash the undercarriage multiple times.

I actually run stock tires with my 3" bl, unless I know I'm going somewhere, then I throw on the MTR's, they're a lot cheaper to replace. I've had people tell me they like the way my truck sits, that it sits just right not too tall, not too low. But other people tell me that i need to keep my 35's on there all the time. It's all on preference, really.

 

How much did it cost to get? Ive been looking at doing one
