    Yeah went with a 4Crawler 1" BL. Actually the gap isn't too bad. I expected it to me much worse but it's so minimal I might not even worry about making any adjustments.

    Those Sky MFG relocation plates are identical to the ones I got. I even looked at those but I ended up getting mine from 4Crawler at the same time I got the BL.

    Here's some phone pics. There's definitely a gap but it isn't too bad IMO and gives me a little breathing room with the bumpers. The top plates on my front bumper were hitting the bottom of the grill and fender corners when the body would flex. And the tailgate would touch the top of my rear bumper when the tailgate was open. This solved all of that and gave a little more room for tires too.

    That looks great. The only gap that would bother me would be the one between the bottom of the tailgate and the bumper. The other ones you can't even tell.

    I agree. The rear bumper is the only one I notice too but you won't even see it when I put the rear swingout back on. They're just off to get repainted.

    Nice, man! I would have installed a 1" BL a long time ago, but (like you) I was worried about the gaps.... :eek: It really isn't that bad. And it can fix sooo many issues!

    I may be TW's "official anti body lift pundit" but I will say that I approve of a quality 1'' body lift. Considering they are just taller bushings, not hard plastic cylinders like a 2 or 3'' BL.
