Needs the steering extension and bumper relocation brackets

 

[El Camino Man]

I thought it was missing some pieces but didnt know

 

[Redneck_ranger]

Still a good deal though man

 

[El Camino Man]

Yup. Too bad I dont have a 83-88 lol. Id probably get it!

 

[Redneck_ranger]

lol It'd probably fit, all that you're missing are the bed supports that need to be welded in

 

[El Camino Man]

Bed supports? What are those

 

[Redneck_ranger]

There's two little rectangular things that are right on the edges of the wheel wells, that need to be welded to the frame. They replace the lift blocks so you only have a little steel piece instead of a massive block

 

[El Camino Man]

Ic. Idk... welding my frame seems a little much for 3 inches lol

 

[Redneck_ranger]

They're just welded on top of the frame, no biggie, Can be done like nothing

 

[El Camino Man]

O ok lol. I was thinkin something like you see on Powerblock TV lol. Notch it, weld it, grind it smooth, and paint it all in about 30 seconds lol. And it looks perfect everytime of course

 

[Redneck_ranger]

lol Nah, I'll see if I can find a pic

 

[El Camino Man]

Thatd help a ton lol

Here's another. You can kinda see it over the back wheel

 

[El Camino Man]

Ahh gotcha. Whats the purpose of these? I cant see how they can bear any load at all

 

[Redneck_ranger]

They're stronger than you'd think. But these trucks are only rated to take 750 lbs-1000 lbs. So they don't need to hold a building up. But I've hauled close to 1500 in my truck over the summer and they didn't bend at all

 

[El Camino Man]

Awesome. What else would I need to make this work? I have been looking for a cheap BL for awhile now lol.

 

[Redneck_ranger]

Need the body lift blocks, bumper relocation bracket, steering extension, and all the necessary hardware such as the bolts and nuts.
