So basicly what I'm seeing in all of the threeds that I've read is that to do a 3" body lift on a '97 X I need the PA 853 kit with 883 front bumper brackets. However my question is: what about my hitch and my brush guard? What happens to them? If I move the hitch with the rear bumper I assume it will loose strength, and therefore no longer be a class III. And the brush guard?? I don't even know where to begin to thinkabout that...
If anyone has done this I'd love to hear about it. To put all of my cards on the table, I'm not even sure I want a BL, I'd like to be higher, but if its too much trouble with the brush guard and hitch, then I may just bag it.
