Description
Product Overview
The Skyjacker BUK2061 2‑inch lift block and U‑bolt kit is a precision‑engineered solution designed to raise the rear axle of trucks and SUVs by a full two inches. Constructed from high‑grade ductile iron, the lift block offers exceptional strength while maintaining a manageable weight of approximately ten pounds. Each component is e‑coated to provide superior corrosion resistance, ensuring long‑term durability even in harsh, salty‑road environments. The kit includes machined iron lift blocks, matching U‑bolts, and fixed center pins that align perfectly with the vehicle’s rear suspension geometry, delivering a stable and level lift without compromising handling.
Dimensions of the lift block measure 20 × 7 × 6 inches, providing ample surface area to distribute load evenly across the axle housing. The included U‑bolts are sized to match the OEM specifications, allowing for a direct bolt‑on installation that eliminates the need for additional adapters or custom fabrication. The kit’s design follows Skyjacker’s rigorous quality standards, with each piece undergoing strict dimensional checks and strength testing before packaging.
Beyond the core components, the package weight of 13.8 pounds reflects the robust nature of the materials while still being manageable for a single‑person installation. The product is listed under the automotive replacement parts category, specifically within the transmission and drive‑train axle U‑bolt kits, making it easy for customers to locate the correct part for their vehicle. With a UPC of 803696177076 and a global trade identification number of 00803696177076, the kit is fully traceable and compatible with a wide range of rear‑axle applications.

Usage
This lift block and U‑bolt kit is intended for rear‑axle upgrades on light‑to‑medium duty trucks, off‑road vehicles, and performance‑oriented SUVs that require additional ground clearance or a more aggressive stance. The two‑inch lift is ideal for owners looking to improve approach angles, enhance tire clearance, and achieve a more commanding visual presence without extensive suspension modifications. Installation is straightforward: the existing rear axle housing is removed, the lift block is positioned, and the U‑bolts are torqued to the manufacturer‑specified values, typically between 150‑180 lb‑ft, to secure the assembly.
Because the kit is vehicle‑specific, it fits a broad range of models that share common rear‑axle dimensions, reducing the need for multiple part numbers. The iron construction tolerates the increased stress that comes with larger tire sizes and off‑road impacts, making it a reliable choice for daily drivers as well as weekend trail enthusiasts. Users should verify clearance for brake lines and driveshafts before installation, but the kit’s compact design minimizes the likelihood of interference.
After installation, drivers will notice a noticeable improvement in ride height, which can translate to better weight distribution and reduced under‑carriage strain when navigating rough terrain. The lift also provides a subtle improvement in handling dynamics, as the higher center of gravity can be offset by the added rigidity of the iron block and the precise bolt pattern. Regular maintenance checks are recommended to ensure bolts remain properly torqued and that the e‑coated surfaces remain free of rust or debris.

FAQ
What vehicles are compatible with the BUK2061 lift block?
The BUK2061 kit is designed for a wide range of rear‑axle applications found in light‑to‑medium duty trucks, SUVs, and off‑road vehicles that share common axle dimensions. Compatibility lists are provided in the product manual and can be confirmed by checking the vehicle’s OEM specifications for rear‑axle mounting points.
How does the e‑coating improve the product’s lifespan?
E‑coating creates a uniform, corrosion‑resistant layer over the iron surface, shielding it from moisture, road salt, and other environmental factors that typically cause rust. This protective barrier significantly extends the component’s service life, especially in regions with harsh weather conditions.
Can I install the kit myself, or do I need a professional?
The kit is engineered for a bolt‑on installation that a competent DIY enthusiast can complete with basic hand tools and a torque wrench. However, if you are unfamiliar with axle work or lack the necessary equipment, seeking professional assistance is recommended to ensure safety and proper torque specifications.
What torque specifications should I use for the U‑bolts?
Skyjacker recommends torquing the U‑bolts to between 150 and 180 lb‑ft, depending on the specific vehicle model. Always refer to the vehicle’s service manual for exact torque values and use a calibrated torque wrench to achieve accurate results.
Is there a warranty on the lift block and U‑bolt kit?
Yes, Skyjacker offers a limited warranty covering manufacturing defects for a period of one year from the date of purchase. The warranty does not cover damage caused by improper installation, misuse, or normal wear and tear. Contact our support team for warranty claims and further assistance.
