    Just doing some researching. I want to see as many photos of 2nd gens with bodys lifts as possible. It appears we have very little in the forum about them. Please provide detailed photos if you have them. I'm not asking for discussion... just photos.

    I was thinking about getting a 3" body lift as well on top of my 3" suspension lift but from all the information I gathered, body lifts are junk so I said screw it. If I really want to go 6"s, which I don't any more, I would just get a whole new suspension kit.:rolleyes: But I decided I like my 3", still fits in the garage!!

    No dude, I thought the same thing, then I saw the front view and the skid plate being 3" under the body made me projectile vomit onto my monitor

    I'm currently researching a 1" BL for my truck. Since I can cut and weld the Cab mount but I don't want to pound the sheet metal. During full articulation the tires does make slight contact with the Cab itself. So adding a 1" BL might be a good option.

    It's the pinch weld just behind the fender, above the cab mounts.
