You can ask Brandon over at Rides of Conover where he got the additional bolts, he just told me "a supplier".

hello bimmer,

I am new to this thread, and I have a question for you about your brush guard. How do you mount it to the truck ? I bought a used one from a guy and I cant figure out how to mount it. it looks as if i need brackets to mount it. Did your come with any other hardware besides the what is in your pictures? Thanks

Yes, they are thick "L" brackets w/ threaded holes that that mount up behind the oem DRL top bumper/fascia. You can mount it to a SMA bumper w/o the L brackets, but those are far and few between. (I have one I'm about to install when I find the time). If he didn't give you the L brackets, I might have mine for sale down the road. If you need instructions, I can photocopy mine for ya.

O man, that would be great. Yes, can you please photo copy the instructions for me. Thanks so much. When do you think you may sell your l brackets? I think I am going to have a shop make some for me.

Send me your name and address, I'll photocopy them and get them out in the mail. As far as the brackets, either later this month, or next.

o.k. I just sent you a private message with the info.

also, have you tried any of the ecu programmers or the after market ecu's? can you recommend anything?

I have never used a programer, the instructions are copied and will go out Monday. ;)

I have 2 sets of Air Spring Spacers left over from when I had them custom made for my H2. They are milled from UHMW Plastic. I will sell a set for $75 Shipped.

Here is another body lift, 3" with the frame cut at the radiator support (so no spacer needed) and I assume the same in the rear.

Anyone still alive on this thread? Me and another fella are thinking about given this a go...2" for me, 3" for him and I wanted to pick some brains about certain details.

Thanks in advance.

You ever do it?

Negative...I changed my thoughts on 'lifts.'

On my SUV I leveled it and shoved some 37's under it...that ended up being just right for me. I'm doing the same thing on the SUT, minus the rear coil spring spacers.

After wheeling with some lifted deuces and watching them teeter and totter I decided that I'd rather keep my center of gravity low.

Glad to see that you're still around.
