Anybody gottent the 2" BL for a 97 nissan? I currently see that only the 3" BL is available. AC guys told me that I could use the 2" BL from the older model HBs.

Anybody know what parts are included in the 2" BL for HBs? My biggest concern is the drop-down brackets for the radiator...

Mcfly runs a 3" BL on his heap Pissfinder. Not sure if he had to relocate the radiator or not.

If someone were to try to install a 2" body lift on a 94+ HB, what would have to be custom fabbed? I've been thinking of trying this myself as I've heard you don't have to do as many mods for a 2". As far as the radiator, I know some at AC left their radiator in the stock location. I think you just have to remove the bottom fan shroud.

We did a 3" on DocP's and we just got rid of the whole shroud and didn't move the rad.

The kit came with a whole bunch of parts that we didn't even need, including parts for 2wd trucks...so don't worry about parts big grin

But, would a 2" work on a 94 and up Hardbody? What parts would it be missing, in other words what is different about the 93 and 94? Only reason I'm asking is because I've heard that the 2" is alot easier to install than the 3.

Pathfinders changed after 92 and stayed the same til 95. I would assume that the HB did the same.

If this is true, the lift would be no different from 93-94.

I would say that the 2" would be easier. We had to buy some new rad hoses and a couple other things for the 3". I'm willing to be that you wouldn't need to buy anything extra for the 2"...but make sure you got an extra car just in case big grin

DocP's lift was a PA lift bought through AC. He has a 95 SE.
