3" BL on Edges/2WD?
Hey guys, I've been noticing alot of people have Edges or 2WD with 3" or 4" BodyLifts..How did yall go about doing that? Just did it yourselves or? Just curious, I'm not mechanically-inclined at all and kinda asked around town a few months ago and shops were quoting $1500 to do it.

Yes it will look horrible with that small a tire. Minimum tire I would run on a BL is a 33" tire. First BL is always the hardest. Each one after gets easier and takes less time. Oh and one more thing to add. On a 98+ Tbar truck with a little bit of a crank on the front end you can fit 32's stock.

Finally, thanks for posting pics Silver. Checked out your profile and was trying to look at your truck, hell even went through your posted threads and couldnt find any lol. Definately like your truck, real sharp looking. Not too many people have rims like yours (or mine) down here, its a sweet look. Those are only 32s? Looks good man.. Yeah, gotta wait for my tires to bald out and convince the ole fiancee to hold off on the wedding plans, daddy's gotta lift his truck!!! You can help me with that, right Silver?? YOUR MY BOY SILVER!!

I don't know what these guys think was so easy about doing a BL, but I found it pretty tough, personally. I am ASE certified in 3 areas and have wrenched for a living for nearly 8 years now...I thought it was a major PITA.
I kept asking myself, while I was doing it, how all these guys that work on computers and stuff for a living put on a BL themselves in their driveway.
My suggestion would be to find someone on the forums who has done it before in your area and can help you.

It took me 8 hours start to finish...but I bet I could do it in 5 next time...4 if it's a new truck and not all rusty like mine...but like the instructions, and the pictures that came with them...completely confusing.
