Title: Calmini Lift
Post by: 86sammy on July 26, 2008, 06:14:11 AM: I just purchased a 3in suspension lift from calmini, i guess i should have asked questions first? Anyone have any experience with this lift? I noticed it does not come with new U bolts. ??

Post by: 86sammy on July 26, 2008, 11:08:59 PM: Figured it would be.. Do you have it? And the u bolts, every other lift i have done has needed longer u bolts. ? thats why. Ofcourse my truck has u bolts.

The manufacturer will know their product better than I will. So should the vendor if you got it through someone other than Calmini.

Wow thanks for the help

I took my best guess, and directed you to the best place to get a better answer. Not sure the sarcasm and snotty attitude make me feel warm and fuzzy about being helpful again in the future.
