TJ lift info part 2

Can I add some suggestions?....Well I will anyways

1. IMHO it's better to drop the radiator or redrill the shroud - you don't really want to change the Shroud/Fan relative locations....or you will decrease your cooling efficency - and quite a bit.....
2. Yes you will need to extend both the fuel filler & Fuel vent lines.
3. You do NOT need to touch the brake lines. You also do NOT need to touch the power steering lines.
4. You will need a t/case shift linkage bracket - ESPECIALLY if you you not have a SYE.
5. Personally I did NOT cut my gear shift when I did my 2" BL - instead I just clearanced the tunnel/console a bit to make it work ok. But I didn't like the idea of cutting or bending it unless I really had too (whih I didn't).
6. Do you have A/C? If so you'll need to probably trim a little off the radiator mounting flange (about 1"x1").
7. You will need a spacer to put under the steering shaft chassis mount (just forward of the egnine mount).
8. You will need a little spacer to fit between the front guards & chassis rails to relocate the little rubber bumppette things.....

Before you do it try and squirt all bolts with wd40 every few days for a week before you actually do the BL.
When fitting the BL make SURE you use medium strength LockTight & a torque wrench.

Anyhows that's my 2¢.....and if I haven't included everything, don't blame me this list is just what I can remember from 5 years ago

Nope. But it is easier to lift your engine 1 inch as well instead of trying to relocate the fan shroud

like something to do with a vaccum line and stuff like that or is that only covering there arse.

I did the install and write-up of this product on my jeep. It was only a mention to check the vaccum hose, as when lifted 1inch, it MAY or MAY NOT pull loose from it's connections. There is plenty of slack, and no alterations needed to the line...just a checking precaution, as your TJ will run crap with it detached.

Other than that, everything needed for the lift comes in the kit.
