Yours is a 4x4, so doesn't it have a little lift from the factory?

You will need to worry about several elements when applying a body lift, then the "leveling kit". Gas inlet hose, radiator brackets, steering extension, brake line lengths, bumper relocations, etc...

Virused, could you give me a quick rundown on the little pain in the *** things on a body lift? I've never done one. The kit comes with a steering extension and bumper mounts. I'd think the gas line could just be extended, or is that at a high enough pressure where the whole line needs replaced? Radiator brackets can be fabricated pretty easily I'd imagine. Brake lines might suck... Thanks for the help
