1.5" 2008 body lift
First time poster. Wanted to share my custom 1.5" body lift. Why don't they make a kit smaller than 3"?
You can make your own though with 14 3" wide 2" tall zone offroad individual lift blocks and table saw, PA 3" body lift kit instructions, Body bolts 1.5" shorter than instructions call for, small ga metal plate for fabbing fan shroud drop brackets, and a die or angle grinder for the front bumper brackets to slot the holes and get 1.5" out of the bumper.
I did this because it makes a 2wd with a leveling kit sit about like the 4x4 sits. Unfortunately the rear bumper has less room for slotting and only goes up 3/4 of an inch without more extensive work.
Wanted to share. Not super hard if you are mechanically inclined. Not easy if you are not but doable.
Here is how it turned out. Gap is present but not horrible.
