I've tried searching on here but cant come up with anything. I finally have enough blocks to do my body lift. I have 3" blocks but im cutting them down to 2". My question is what size bolts will I need to get the job done. and will I need a steering extension with only a 2" BL?

finding the proper thread can be difficult without buying a kit. i used 1/2" bolts, drilled out the body mounts and used a crimp nut. go to performance acsessories and they have installation instructions you can print off and tells you bolt size and length. i ended up going 20mm longer on each bolt then they said to to accomadate for the nut. good luck by the way mine was a 99 so it might be different.

sorry to hijack but I am also hoping someone could answer the question of wether a 2" body lift requires steering or manual shift extender? what is the limit on the steering I know 3" requires the steering I've done a 1 inch without any extension, does 2" require?

i finsished mine this week i needed 4 seven inch bolts and 6 6inch bolts i think i did half inch and matched the stock thread so u can re-use all the speed cips for the bed. i also didnt need any extensions for anything. the wires going to my transfercase got tight but bending the bracket up towards the truck solved that
