    Have any of you all ran the dystar body lift? i like that it replaces the whole mount instead of just adding a puck. Ive read a few things about the bed supports failing but that is something i can fix on my own.

    i only plan to run a 3" suspension lift, and the extra inch from this body lift would help with rubbing issues while off road which is my main reason to go with a body lift at all.

    are there any negative side effects from this setup? i have a 5spd 4x4 but i cant see a 1 inch BL making much difference with the shifters

    I've ran a Roger Brown 1" body lift for the same reason for years and I have never had an issue. They are just the pucks. I don't have an issue with the shifters either.

    ARB Front bumper. Custom rear bumper. ARB snorkel. 883s 90004s. 1 inch daystar body mounts lift. Full skids. Leather seats.

    I have had it on my truck for about 3 years with zero problems. Had a bulletproofing shop install. At first they gave me shit for the body lift(friends with the owner) but when they were done they said they were impressed with it and would consider for some of their bulletproofed vehicles. Only really a body lift in rear with the front being replacements the stock mounts. A lot of jeep guys run it and praise it. I highly recommend as it didn't effect the ride at all and has preformed well. Bed supports are easily fixed and I'm just now needing to do it.
