Got up this morning nice and early, to start the install. I had a buddy of mine come over to give me a hand. First thing we did was go through the parts list, and thats when **** hit the fan. I'm missing a good hand full of washers, nutz, and bolts. How crappy is that! So now I have to wait untill tomarrow afternoon to get a new kit. Guess I'll be starting friday morning.
make sure to take pics, maybe u and someone else can make a great "how to" about this...i'd love to see it in action! i mite go with a BL, but i'm too nervous about unbolting everything.

What kind of truck do u have? We are having a Meet on July 9th, and its gonna be a trail ride in CT. let me know if your trucks done, and if ya wanna join
yea, but the only pictures on the instructions are in black and white, and its only of the brackets for the bumpers. Having the howto above, shows you were the lil things go, and some other things that are kinda tuff to work out.
I just did mine tover the last three days by myself. What a B$#%@ . I didnt understand a couple things though. Like my gas tank filler didnt need to be extended???? It was long enough and isnt creased anywhere. THe only thing i have left to do is finish tightening the cab mounts. I cant figure out how to tighten the ones in the floor board. oh well i guess i'll figure it out tomrrow.
True at least I wasn't half-way done with and then relize I was missing a **** load of parts. The instructions are pretty good, pics are a little small/fuzzy but I'll figure it out I think. I'll take a ton of pics.
Trail ride in CT on the 9th would be sweet but I'm going to New Hampshire that weekend. Where in CT are you going trail riding?
On my body lifted ranger, in the winter, when i pump my gas..sometimes it burps it back out....i thought it was the extension they put in for the BL, but its the same set up as in the how to picture....what else can it be??? It doesnt do it in the summer, but im still cautious and hold a rag around the pump...it ate the clearcoat off, not flaking or anything, but its not shiny anymore, i waxed it up so its not that bad now, but i dotn want it to happen this winter again...any suggestions?? The pump will shut off when it goes in to fast, like its full...but its not ....and it will spit it back out...
