I'm on day two of installing my lift. I was expecting it to be much easier. We got the front springs and shocks in; that took some work. Now we're trying to get the MAF brackets in and it's not looking good. The brackets bolt to two of the bolt holes for the tranny cross-member. On each side, one those bolts on the cross-member snapped off. DOH! Not sure how I'm going to get them out, any suggestions?
I also intended to install the MAF poly spacers on top of my springs, but they didn't fit. The seat for the front springs has the cone in the middle with the bump stop coming from it. The spacer I got bottomed out on that cone about an inch and a half before hitting the spring seat. It wasn't like it was almost there and with the weight of the truck it would press up, it didn't seem close. Any ideas?
I will try to get some pictures up in the morning of my struggles.
The good news, the 1" body lift went smoothly.
If there are any local cruiser heads out there that want to help out, I'd be willing to pay for someone with experience at this.
