Body lift was created by Mike G
Hi all,

I have a 2" body lift kit ( like the one in the pic), but just wanted to confirm if both the original rubbers need to be kept.  I know the bottom one will need to be there, but does the orange rubber replace the top one entirely?  Just want to make sure before I do something completely stupid

2" Trailmaster suspension lift, 2"body lift, snorkel, full breather kit, 29" steel wheels with BFG tyres, tinted rear windows, CRT CB radio with modulator antenna mounted on rear, dog cage and tray in the back.

As far as I am aware those replace the top rubber bits.

Yes, that's how I used to make my bodylifts... the orange bit in the photo replaces theblack rubber isolator that fits between the chassis and the body...

You can see it is the same shape but taller to lift the body up, and is moulded to sit in the chassis cups...

That's great,

Thanks again.  I wasn't sure if it was the 2" plus the original or not as I'd seen pics of a few body lifts with the original rubbers still there.  But I'm guessing that's only done when your body lift comprises of metal spacers.

Yup, spot on... the metal spacers sit on top of the original rubber body to chassis bushes...

Most are 2" diameter, that's why I had my old body lifts done in the style you have...
