Anyone have the Day Star 1" Body lift?
Im about to buy one. Ive already cranked the t bars... I want to get some new rims and tires(34"s) and i figured i would throw the body lift on for a little extra room. ive seen the pics on the h3t does any one have it installed on a regular h3?

There's a couple of H3s with them... They look pretty good, just picture an extra 1" gap around the bumper lines and frame meeting body on the sides... Hockey pucks always work too... But you really don't need it to run 34s most 35" tires are an oversized 34 anyways...

The daystar comes with longer bolts...

Don't know if that linky will work, last page has the parts list... Comes with 12x bolts...
Not knowing the actual material used by daystar, it's basically the spacers and bolts, with instructions on what needs to be done to get everything to line up 100% for the price it's ntb... But 12 hockey pucks (solid rubber) can be had for $12 lol... The bolts could prob be ordered in grade 8 for under $50...

just curious
no plans u understand!,,but are u saying u ADD hocky pucks to existing rubber cushions? drill holes in rubber? maybe its hard enuf,but i cant get holes in tires to drain water out of junk tires!!
even tried a 44 magnum!
if adding to existing rubber,u could use any spacer like aluminum huh

Are you saying you don't understand the plans or me? Anywho... I would say no to the aluminum, would make for a really rough ride and pretty harsh... More than likely the daystar is polyurethane which will hold up better and longer than rubber... The hockey pucks are a real easy mod... Table vise and drill is all you need... Punch a hole the size of the new bolts and your done

been looking around for some used tires on craigslist cant find anything in 34" or 35" for that matter... found a set of 285/75/16 dueler revo at's but thats only an inch taller then what i have... if i add the body lift it would exactly the same as it sits right now.. still would like to see some pics though...

33" tires (285/75/16 or 305/70/16) or 35" tires (315/75/16) not only add an inch or 2 in height, the added height is Ground Clearance. They also fill in the wheel well opening more than the standard 32" tires.
That is a much better looking result than just adding a 1" lift and staying with stock 32" tires.
A body lift does not add any ground clearance.
