OK, so I need some opinions. I have a ram with 6" suspension and 3" body. I want to get some black nerf bars so my GF stops complaining about getting in the truck, do any of you have nerfs with a body lift? I dont want the damn things to hang down really low and look like garbage, is there anyway I can tuck them so they are only a few inches lower than the body of the truck? If I remember right, most nerf's just mount into the body mount locations, using longer bolts. Will I need super extra long bolts then too b/c of the spacers from the PA body lift? Too much junk just for nerf bars I think. Anyone running them with a pic?
heres mine i have a body lift, took the westin nerfs that where on the truck and cut the bracket back to lift the bars up to the truck so there is no gap
I can show you some pics of mine with them set as they originally were before the BL. As you can see they, can be left alone or new holes drilled in the brackets and raised. It just depends on what you like. And the bolts that come with the PA BL are fine. You wont need longer.
awesome, just the perfect info I was looking for. going to grab the black ones. any brand you guys suggest? and same as a bullbar, getting a black one, did you also mod those brackets?
For a little more coinage, you could do the Nfab Dominator bars, they look sick on a lifted truck. I've got black Westin bars and will eventually switch to the Nfab's once I get a lift on.
