tips for body lift?
i started my body lift, the back is done, i took all the front bolts expect for one bolt, going to torch it tomorrow. I basically snapped all the other bolts off cause everything was so rusted. I think i need to get new chassis mounts. All the bushings are shot. Anybody have any tips for me, to make it easier

Just make sure to check for clearence between your lower radiarot hose and belts. Most bodylifts have a footnote for this for the 4.9L. The best fix is a flexible radiator hose from Summit, bit you can also get by with just securing it back away from the belts.
