Who has installed? Can this be done on jack stands?

Bolt in or weld in, pretty much the same , car needs to be on jack stands front and rear , completely off the ground. Then just bolt or weld them in. I bolted mine and welded them.08' L76 6.0L 4X4 Chevy EXT.Cab LTZ Vortec MAX with Snug top cover, Dynomax exhaust,Hptuners& K&N intake

My BMR SFC do not clear the fuel lines on the driver side!!
The passenger side SFC would clear as it's different (longer) - looks like they were made backwards but match the picture on their website!!Robert - owner www.FirebirdV6.com "Mid-life crisis? I'm way beyond that!"

We had to put a piece of metal over the fuel lines and then weld so we didn’t melt the fuel lines. Can you take a pic?08' L76 6.0L 4X4 Chevy EXT.Cab LTZ Vortec MAX with Snug top cover, Dynomax exhaust,Hptuners& K&N intake

I have had 2 sets welded in now and they always cleared the lines. I don’t believe you want to install on jackstands if I remember correctly as the unibody can sag on jackstands and then you weld that tweak in place.
I thought you want to install them with the suspension loaded. My exhaust guy has a drive on lift and welded both sets for me. I can see if I can snag a photo of the sides at home for you later

You might want to take the to a shop Robert, especially if their weld in. I think Mike is right they need to be loaded on the suspension, it’s been so long since we did mine.Last edited by ssms5411; 06-14-2022, 08:05 AM.08' L76 6.0L 4X4 Chevy EXT.Cab LTZ Vortec MAX with Snug top cover, Dynomax exhaust,Hptuners& K&N intake

Like Mike said weld in SFC's need to be done on a drive on lift.
Bolt in could be done on jack stands then re adjusted later on a drive on lift.Comment
