Relocating Sidekick ARB bumper for 2" body lift?
« on: April 22, 2009, 09:49:20 AM »
I am thinking about adding a 2" body lift and was wondering what exactly needed to be done to relocate an ARB front bumper up 2" on a 98 Suzuki Sidekick JX?  Pictures would be greatly appreciated.

It's an absolute pain to do that... you pretty much have to re-engineer the mounting plate for the bumper...

2" lift

I know...Pretty boring... FOR NOW...

I'll try to post pics of how my ARB bumper mount conversion was done.
