Yes, since the body is being lifted from the frame. The bumper will stay in the frame location while the body is above the bumper/frame. I mean you could build some brackets to make it work but it being so heavy, I wouldn't sugest it. I'd scrap the 3" body idea if you really want those bumpers.

i am scraping it, since i already have my front bumper coming in in like a week or so.

so im guessing bilstein 5100's....new leaf packs in the back?? what size would i need and how much do you think??

cause i deffinatly want to go higher SOON.

or maybe just get some small things for birthday and some money....save up for kings in the front and DR or DL's in the rear and get a custom length in the back?? how about that??

Well, this isn't all for sure. I need to take measurements still. If you kept your 6" Rize block, you'd need a 4" leaf pack which is about $530 from Deaver or BDS. I'm probally going to get a custom 8" leaf pack from Deaver and run my stock 2" block, thats going to cost me about $750. I don't think we'll have any problems with our Bilsteins. There are a bunch of members running around with a 4" add-a-leaf which is basically the same amount of lift with the Bilsteins without any problems.

k so i have a buyer for both my Front and Rear Bumpers and he wants my fender flares also.

So i think im going to ask for the rear bumper for my birthday. Use the money im getting to help pay back for the Front bumper i already ordered....and then buy some bushwacker fender flares.

and then ill buy whatever else i can...probably the bilsteins.

how does this sound???

OR

should i buy the rear replacement bumper with the money i get from selling this stuff......then get bilsteins and new fender flares for my birthday?? and use rest of money to pay back for the front bumper i bought??

Do you have a pic of the rear boondocks bumper? I've looked on their site and didn't see one. How much for the rear?

they dont have a set design for it, they just make the rear how you want it.

Im going to have mine made like the Road Armor one.
it is 450 plus 200 freight shipping.

hey i still like the lambo door idea....only reason im against it is i couldnt get into the truck cause theyd get in the way of the grab handle that i use to get up in.

but im oging to ask for leaf packs and bilstein 5100's if they wont go for that, then im going to ask for the bumper, and then buy the bilsteins myself.
