    Everyone on here is going to tell you not to put a body lift on. But its your choice and performance accesories has a 1 and 2 inch I believe.

    I know everybody is going to say that, but thats why i only want a max of 2", really 1.5" would be ideal. I am going to put on the camburg spindles and icon coilovers in the front and put those between 2.5"-3" and put a custom leaf pack for the rear that has lift in it. Going to be putting on 35" tires, and was going to put a small body lift if needed, and i figured 1-2" would be good enough. But i will check out performance accesories. Thanks...Mike

    Ya i saw that thread a little earlier in the day, i was thinking of getting the icons with the piggy back resevoir, but if the price is really $500, it is a deal that i cant pass up. Do you know what spring rate come on these, i thought i saw that icons came with 650#. Thanks for the heads up....Mike

    Yeah, posting a thread asking about body lifts here is pretty much not going to get you many suggestions.

    If you can't find the right size kit, you can always buy the 3" and cut down the pieces to whatever size you want. You can also make your own.

    Or you can just screw the body lift altogether and do a suspension lift like a smart person would.

    Not anything other than a drop bracket. If you want more lift after your coil overs you would have to get a body lift to achieve more lift.
