Just wondering if anyone bought a 3inch body lift from preformance accessories kit number 743 and if it came with nuts . or would i have to use factory .

I am not sure on 'that' PA part number but I did a bl to 3 Rangers....83, 93 and a 99 as well as my 89 BII I used the PA bl and all my parts were included. I did not have to buy anything else. I do think that I used some of my bolts in a couple of areas, but can't really remember.

well i got the kit and it comes with the blocks and bolts and steering extention and washers .. no nuts .

i'd call them up. my 2 inch kit came with everything, including the nuts.

 

[redneckfordranger1986]

ok thanks

ive bought them and they have come without nuts before, because the body bushings have the nute built into them alot of the time....just dont know why they wouldnt include them just incase

 

[redneckfordranger1986]

sweet thanks mhughes165 how do u like ur lift ?

 

[mhughes165]

the body lift on the rangers allows for multiple things, its gives the much needed clearance around the transmission area for when ur trans has to come out(not if, but when).

personally, i think u cant beat 3" of lift for 100 and change, esp when u need just that little bit more of room, ive run a body lift on almost all of my trucks, and imma run one on my future rangers aswell

yeah i wish i had the body lift when i had to pull my old tranny out , it was a pain in the ass lol . I got my 3 bl off suspensionconnection.com for 115.95

for stuff like that keep a eye on ebay, lots of cool shit come up from cheap for time to time, one time i got a body lift for 80 shipped

 

[redneckfordranger1986]

damn thats was good deal .. yeah my dad got it for christmas lol ... how hard is it to change the body bushing ?

 

[strvger]

most bushings change out pretty easily. the very front 2 will be the hardest and they tend to rust up there pretty fast. might have to drill them out, but not a big deal. a few days before you do the lift and bushings, start going around and spraying each of the body bolts with PB Blaster, WD-40, or something similar. doing that twice a day for 3-4 days in advance will make them come apart much easier.
you, your dad, and a buddy or 2 should have it done in a day really. not that bad a mod to do, imho.
