I finished my BL, except for the bumpers...I cant seem to figure out the directions on mounting them...Anybody got any pics of installing them, or pics of the finished product....Do you have to cut the stock brackets?

 

Let me know what else you need, you don't need to cut ianything. The front is easy just put the stock mount on the body lift mount, the body lift mount gets bolted to the truck.

 

WOW THEM PICS ARE HUGE!

on the back take the factory brackets off then put the new one on and you'll be good to go.

 

Yeah I know, they're not my pics lol

 

they are MY pics! That i took for Trent for his BL! lol. Nice.


Rear ones....eliminate the stock brackets. replace with the PA brackets. you'll see the holes in the frame for the brackets....ALL rangers have them.

 

For the front bumper. I FOund out how it mounted finally the bumper is on minus the valance and fog lights (to hard to take off the tow hooks with hand tools)....Not my bumper is kinda crooked or something...The passenger side is closer to the body than the drivers side...and it seems to kinda tilt at a slight angle down...??WTF

I tried bending the bumper with my hands it kinda worked out..>The top 2 bolts on the new brackets are all the way tight either (dont have a deep socket)......

Can i take my rear receiver off and the bumper will be easier to mount??

 

How does your rear reciever hitch mount? Trevor's and mine mounts to the same spot the PA bumper brackets mount to. Austin's mounts to right under the frame. Depends on the hitch.

 

well i got my front bumper on, and FINALLY got my tow hooks off (thanks torch)...My rear im gonna have to wait on...I have a class 3 hitch i dont want now i took it off it was bolted with 3 bolts on each side....(trent has dibbs)..

 

Looks good!!

 

Looks great man, glad to hear that torch worked. That thing looks like a beast now!

 

Trent did you trans tubes click back into the clips?? mine are a little tight

 

Yeah I had to manhandle them in there but they went in. I just noticed they were out the other night lol

 

mine where fine though im not happy with the new location

but that will be fixed soon

 

H0ws that??
Well i extended my trans tubes some now there nice and flexable, and the tubes snapped in easy after that..Made me some gap guards too last night..

 

Anybody else notice some rake, after a BL?? I wasnt raking bad before this now it looks to me a lil more raking has occured??

 

Let's see the gap guards.

 

Well i dont have internet at my house, and my GF has dial up so it wont load pics...Ill have to wait till i go to my grandmas again, maybe this weekend?? Sorry

I found out the rake may be cause becasue the rear bumper is gone and the towing receiver

 

yea...that cheerleader gf of yours. lol.

 

leave it alone mannn!!! ha
Shes no longer a cheerleader, she used to be...gah

 

i'm jus methin' bro...just methin'.
