    if memory serves me correctly, the only piece of the cladding that attaches to the chassis is the rear bumper. All the others, even the front, just screw into the body.

    If I were doing this, I'd look at fabbing up some relocation brackets. The ones you get with the default PA body lift kit are crap (as are most of the parts in that kit).

    There are at least 2 Vxs on this site with body lifts. I do not believe they took such drastic measures to make it work...but I'm not positive. If you search you shall find the answers you seek!

    Member Dstruction is the only person I know that made it look pretty good. I know he didn't go to that extent, and the back plastic was kinda stretched around the rear but it looked good still.

    I believe someone in Alaska did one also...and was doing an SAS also. He doesn't post up much on the board any more.


    Okay, after searching it was Boarzhead. Must be an Alaska thing since that is where Dstruction is also from! Anyone know what Boarzhead is upto these days? Never did see any type of finished photos of his VX.

    I haven't talked/seen him for a few months, last I heard he was gonna be doing the SAS but I have no idea if he even started it. Will tell him to check in here if I see him.
