Why did I get the M.O.R.E. body lift instead of daystar of any other company? Because I wanted their motor mounts, which are guarenteed to be a perfect height match, and made to work together. Doing these mods together makes the body lift a 30 minute job, with no drilling and no difficulty. The radiator drop, the trasfer case shift linkage mod, and steering guide bracket mod are not required when performed with the motor mount lift, unless you have a lift that uses the trasfer case drop pucks. This will require you to do the transfer case shift linkage as well.
