Got my lift, got questions

Some pics





The first pic is the drop bracket. Didn't have to cut or lengthen any brake lines or hoses or anything. Second pic is after the lift with the 31x10.5's installed. Bonus points for showing off the beat up rusty side right? How the drivers side could rust to nothing and the passenger side be in decent shape is beyond me.

Any trouble getting it aligned after the lift?

Had to install camber bushings, as the lift made the camber way way too positive. I didn't do it, the guy at the alignment shop did. The alignment was over $200.00 because of all the extra work he had to do to get it into spec. And that is with our cheap SW Iowa shop rates.

my brake line dosent come around the bottom of the frame like that and theres a line coming in from the back of the hose also so im going to have to go another route,

Mine also has a brake line that comes in through the back. It's just low enough that the line fits under the frame into the hose. Your B2 looks nice with the lift.

So you had to bend it?

 

[vwa1]

yup

im thinking the brake line mod in the tech library wont work for me because or the double inlet on my existing brake hose, unless im missing something in the picture

Thoughts on pitman arm, I see that the pitman ran that comes with the kit only drops about two inches, are anyone using a arm for a 6-8 inch lift instead?

need at least a 4 in arm, or custom steering....dont be afraid to run new hardline.

i also like the e350 lines....they work good too.
