It does look a lot better already. It is hard to appreciate the difference from just looking at pictures on here. I think I may take a picture next to a stock one for comparison when I am done.

Thanks for the input.

Sorry, should have posted this sooner. Here is a picture of how the front and rear should look assembled.

www.savefile.com only keeps a file active for 24 hours. This is why the link doesn't work. I updated it again this morning, but after 24 hours, it will get move to a new location and not be active again.

It's their way of keeping people like me from posting pictures there and never removing them.

If any one else knows of a "Free" picture hosting service that I don't have to create a user account I'm all ears.

I do like the idea of setting up our own FTP site and server for hosting picturs though.

Logan,

Those picture would have been very beneficial and saved me from having to re jack and turn over each block. But hey if it went easy I would not know what to do. Should help everyone else that is going to do it.

Thanks,
Keith

Are those hockey pucks? By lifting the body, do you feel a major difference on the car's stability?

I've got plenty of other pictures of the body lift install and installing a limited slip differential in the rear end. If I could just find a place to post them, I could put links here for a write up on how to do both.

CBP,

The lift I have is from 4crawler / Roger Brown. It lifts the Sportage 1 3/8" and is made of white poly material that Roger was so nice to paint black for me.

Here is his web site:

http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale/BodyLiftKit.shtml

Link may or may not work. Been a while since I visited it last.
