http://128.83.80.200/taco/scarysteering.html Don't do any of this!! Be sure to use
lock tite on the things that should be permantly attached and antisieze on the things
that need to be adjusted/replaced occasionally. Are you absolutely positive you need
the lift or do you just want the look of a big truck? Where I live you are cutting your
self off from a lot of good trails and fishing spots by having a too high vehicle.
