3" Body Lift - Bumper Brackets?

[sparg93]

Do you guys think this would help raise our rear bumpers if I had a 3" body lift?

Do you have a 2 door or a 4 door?

At first glance, those look like they might work.

I wish we could get a solid answer on this issue. Ive heard many different things in regards to lifting the rear bumper:

1) buy the brackets from zone offroad
2) modify the brackets from zone for a 2 door
3) bolt the bottom holes of your bumper to the top holes on your stock brackets
4) flip and swap your stock brackets

Is there anything that works all the time, everytime for a 2 door and a 4 door?

I have a 4dr....

I've heard varying methods myself, I thought this might be a panacea if anyone does exist for this issue!

I'm almost positive that Big Blue Bus on here used the rear brackets from zone offroad. Maybe he'll chime in.

I think he did use them, cut a tab off or something and teh guys at zone told him it would be fine to do so.

yeah theres no stock brackets to flip likeon a truck... get the zones or cut end of frame and reweld it higher up and brace the bumpers

I have the Zone kit and it works great. Since you have a 4dr they will just bolt right on. I had to modify mine to fit a 2dr and have had no problems.
