Hey guys finally got round to installing my home made body lift blocks. Its only a 2 inch body lift so i thought it would all go well until it pulled out the steering shaft![Mad :mad: :mad:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I thought you only had problems with the shaft being too short if you lifted the body more than 2 inches![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

Heres the lift blocks i made. Made them from an 2inch o/d shaft from a really old piece of machinery thats being scrapped at work. Cut into 2 inch lengths then an 10.5mm hole drilled through![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
So....... Anyone else had this problem with a 2 inch body lift?
And anyone know what this shaft is made from? If its steel i guess i could cut it and weld a bit in?
Any help greatly appreciated![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
