How exciting. :-) I love watching lifts going on, heh. looking forward to see how it turns out! :-) I wish I would have been more pro-active about my build thread while I was actually building it, instead of mostly after the fact.

i want a small lift just to do lift kits like the one i posted from harbor freight it would be perfect for lifting the body away from the axles and then bolt them up where ever you want i got enough tools to do it and if i don't have it i go and buy it as jake dropped 50 on some line wrenches that were needed for the steering box
