It was the first thing I did with my XL7  :) It looks great! It was 2" lift.

After it I raised fuel tank to the same 2" and took 31"s!

I'm guessing it is something similar to this:

nothing hard. ;) but you need body lift to make place for it. So it is useful!

Wow, I really like it! Love those bumpers!
What's up with that snorkel? Is it incomplete? Or is it not a snorkel in the first place? ???

Cool, can't wait for the pics either. He'll have the MT's on it correct?

Troubles he probably had were the overly long body studs in the middle. Hehe. I hope he shot the pic of how much the body had to be lifted off the frame to get a spacer in there that way. IIR, you had to lift 1 side almost 7" off the frame.

Got it all done and when I get my pics from Gonzookin I will post them up.  Also on a side note I found a fix for the front bolts. I just cut the ruber spacer in half and used the top half and it bolted right.  :D
