I have a body lift. I never installed it but i have the steering extension... I bought it used never installed it yet. Not sure if I will keep it or not now, since I am doing a Solid Axle Swap...

Yea but suspension is a little bit more to it.. I think the lift I have is the poly performance.

Im not sure though but it's 8 blocks, with bolts, some brackets... and other stuff..
