For up to a 2” body lift the fan shroud needs to be cut and the gear sticks should be bent so the boot stays in place or a spacer put under the gearbox mount
For above a 2” body lift steering shaft, gear sticks needs to be lengthened, break & clutch lines may need to be replaced or moved, radiator & shroud need to be lowered
