I have a 2002 isuzu rodeo auto trans i have done as much of a suspension lift as i can approx 4" looking to do a 3" bodylift as i have seen some pics on net.. of 2nd gens with body lifts but cant seem to find one anywhere... ceems only one i can find is performance accessories kit thats for like 90 to 94 manual trans only ...anyone have any info????

um ya think your out of luck with that one bud. plus a body lift is a bad idea with the rodeo, hell I enough issues without one keeping the stock mounts in place

why do you need 7" of lift on a rodeo..?

seems like the 4" is plenty. plus, if you wheel it at all, your COG just got WAYYYY higher up

If you try and do a body lift you will be making some of the parts on your own. The radiator drop brackets, steering spacer, and other parts in the lift you mentioned are not designed for the rodeo. The tranny shifter is also going to be a problem, but if your into fabrication you could probably make some spacers for the shifter.

I do agree with the others who posted above that it really isn't the best way to go.

Most of the guys that have done a body lift on a 2nd gen have used the kit you found. I've heard the shift linkage isn't a big deal cuz supposedly there is enough slack in it to work (not sure though) Also, you don't need to lower the radiator...at least I didn't on mine.

I do have to say why though? I have one and want to take it out, or at least lower it some.....they are hard to undo, so I would suggest really thinking if you want one.

PA won't put it in their catalog if it has not been proven in house. That does not mean that it can't be done.

Call Dale Hudson at Performance Accessories on Monday and he'll tell you if it's doable or not.
