Contibuter finally, & body lift question

[kcmacg]

No thanks to paypal i am finally a contributer.
For a 1" body lift, what has to be changed? I bought a 3" and alot has to be done, I dont need that much lift, so I was thinking a 1" just to get it up a lil bit

TIA

1 inch is a quick swap without having to change anything. Mine was a breeze. Just make sure you don't lift the body against any tight lines, wiring and loosen the steering column.

I did the WH 1", and didn't have to loosen anything. I did check the gas filler hose to make sure it wouldn't crack when stressed. Bronco driver (not sure which issue) shows a step by step, placing a few 2x4's under the rocker to lift.....Lots of PB blast for bolts... and still wouldn't break free. Get your sawzall and have fun..

NICE BRONCO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Since you went through the trouble of becoming a contributor and no one else mentioned it.

I did a 2" lift and only changed my exhaust hangers, clutch rod, and loosened the steering column (but I already had a flaming river double u-joint steering shaft).

Good luck!

Sweet rig man! I love the flames and boggers...they go well together the 1" BL is pretty much a bolt on, no hassle deal....depending on how cooperative your bolts are going to be....half of mine snapped right in half...

I've done several of Wild Horses 1" lifts . I've had do do some clearancing on the fan shroud , adjust clutch linkage & steering column . Always check e-brake cables but I've never had one too tight . You get a little extra bumper to body gap but not too noticable .Have fun ! ;D

what color is that on the front of the Bronco? I am thinking about painting my whole rig that type of color.
