Rear lift kit help

Postby PYROtheNomadR51 » Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:17 pm

I just recently bought a 2.5'' lift kit for the front of my r51. i want to do a sort of body lift in the back by putting some 2'' square tube between the subframe and the body. i was wondering if anyone has a writeup of how to to do it. i have a general idea of how to do it but just wanted to make sure im not missing any steps. also if you want to check out my pathy, here is the link to my latest build update ive posted https://youtu.be/EKevB9BOZck

No writeups that I've seen, but a few videos on youtube though. It's called a rear subframe drop. Square tubing between the frame and the rear subframe to add "lift". Don't forget to by extended rear brake lines when you do that.
