Im gonna do the 1'' body lift on my truck but before I start I would like to get the correct bolt sizes, because it looked like there was two different sets of measurments and then one was changed? Also do these bolts need to be grade 3,5, or 8 and do they need to be fully threaded. And if there is any special kind of nut I need to get to bolt it all teogeath

 

always use grade 8 bolts, especially for sumthin like a body lift... it never hurts to have to strong of a bolt

 

Grade 8 nuts to go along with grade 8 bolts. Only the last couple inches need to be threaded. Get a Torx "star" bit that's the absolute correct size, and remove a bed bolt for comparison.

Why just 1" b/l?

 

grade 10.9. std grade 8 = metric grade 10.9. std grade 5 = metric grade 8.8. On my brother's '01 xcab, we ordered the sizes specified in that 1"body lift thread. I think we changed things up....used 100mm on the core support. And we reused the rear cab bolts and put them in the front cab bolts. They don't have to be fully threaded. Cost was like $35 for the bolts, and $25 for the spacers.

1" BL, torsion crank, and 32s....

 

so will these be the bolt sizes that i need to complet the lift?
I chose the 1'' because i dont like the way the 3'' looks and i dont have money for bigger tires.

 

It works! ... was just curious...

Good luck with your upgrading...

I think the lenghts that stockranger posted are the right lenghts if i remember right.

 

those lengths are correct to complete the lift. Sportztrailers I believe was the seller of the blocks.

 

ok thanks for the help guys. Hopefully in a week or so after i get all the parts Ill start and get some pics up.

 

A few more questions, this block does its go on top of waht is inbetween the the mounts or does it just replace everything? And will I be able to keep my tow hooks?

 

where did you find the kit at

 

its not a whole kits its just the blocks, then you just get the longer bolts and hopefully that is it.

 

Well im gonna start the body lift tomorow during my free time at the shop tomorow. Ill try and take some pics..
