Here's the pix of the exhaust getting it out of the way of the ruber and the driveline.

You may get told that its 2009 and you shouldn't be lifting. But there is a thread about lifting caprice's, if I'm correct it would be some cups and shocks. Trace could probably help you a whole lot better.

I get told alot of stuff all the time but I'm still here. What does that have to do with the year?

I'm not to sure, that's what I been told for having mines lifted and it being 2009. Like it really matters. But that bit looks good, when I first read the title I thought u was askin how to lift it tho.

Yeah, I just read the title again and it kinda works both ways. I should've written "The process to lift a box" or something like that but what's done it's done.
