I'm still of the opinion this entire thread is a farce until proven otherwise... I mean how do you know if I exist? Maybe I'm a SAL 9000.

. I have the material just can't decide what to cut it down to. McMaster Carr sells 6ft rods of uhmp or whatever it's called for cheap What diameter are you using?

Can you post a link to where you bought the D12 kit?
Anyone have a picture of the general location of the 12 bolts?
thanks! The FSM will have a drawing of the locations.

LWB owners should add a boxtube of same size as BL ontop of the frame behind the rearwheels. There is a flatspot on the body that's supposed to mate to the frame when the rear is heavyly loaded. If you get sway in the body in the back the bodymounts will crack.

I think it's 2.5". I'll have to get it out again and measure. McMaster Carr sells the stuff in lengths of 8 ft I think but not center drilled. Easy enough to cut a little long and then face each end square and drill on a lathe. Any height lift you want, even 8 ft. Enough material to do several trucks.
Also I promise I'll post pics to assure you I live. I'll try to find one that includes my super hot wife. I'm still not sure if she exists or if someone just stole my bank account info and is stealing my money. Maybe I'm Partytruck. I'm all confused now.

If you get sway in the body in the back the bodymounts will crack. Good point. The kit I got from Roger for my SWB came with square tube sections to bolt to the frame above the rear axle. I would assume he does the same for all his kits as needed. Of course, if you are making your own...
