BODY LIFT QUESTIONS

Alright alright... I know everyone is going to say don't ruin your truck. Personally I don't care and I'm gonna do it anyway. I just need a question answered. I currently have a 3'' Tuff Country suspension lift kit on Bilstein 5100 shocks and struts. If I do a 1'' body lift, will I have to completely disassemble and reinstall my lift kit I currently have, or do you just add the pucks on and call it a day?

Thanks!

 

If you're concerned about removing your current suspension you're going to have a bad time unbolting and jacking up the cab.

 

I'm not concerned about removing it. I just didn't know if I had to or not. But thanks anyway lol.

 

no need to touch the suspension components to install a body lift.

 

You do not touch any suspension, just steering.

Make sure to do your home work.

Bumper gaps, rad fan shrouds, hoses, steering extensions, all a pain in the ass.

I've done 2 body lifts in my life and the pucks were the easy part both times.

 

I did a writeup many years ago and it's on Roger's website for everyone's use

None of that with a 1” body lift, only gap is the rear bumper is which is nothing!

 

Last year when I did mine, it was a first ever for me. Took me two days, took my time, did the bed first and then the cab. It could be done in a day if none of your bolts/cab mounts give you in any trouble.
