searched forum. need advice

[racing83x]

i already searched the forum and couldnt find anything that helps. i dont have a welder or torch. and i bought a 3" pa kit. i was wondering what is the best way to move the bumpers up. especially the rear bumper:icon_confused:

I guess on the year you have the bumper brackets were not available, then? Every truck I put the PA bl on came with the bracket relocation setup. You can make some brackets up or go to a fab shop and have them install some for you and then you can bolt the bumpers back on. That is what I would suggest!!!

Good luck.

There is no template if thats what you are looking for. Its one of those things you just have to "do" once you have the bodylift on.

A torch and welder will make things ten times easier however, so I suggest finding a good buddy that has both to help you out.

using a pair of square plates you can drill holes that line up with the bumper brackets and below those drill holes that line up with the frame. then you can just bolt everything back together, no torch or welder required.

1\4 inch plate correct and im assuming a 4"x4" piece correct ive looked at it but im just not sure
