What size body lift are you looking to make?  This will probably be moved over to one of the other forum sections, this one is more for on how you did it.  :)

Thanks
I am thinking about going with the rocky BL but I might wait and see how the spacers perform

The SR Customs looks neat but I have to give a plug to the Altered Ego one for around the same price.

Don't forget the steering extension and you mayneed to fab bumper brackets.

Put your vehicle in a position when you are at full articulation then get out and check for binding.  It sounds like your tires are rubbing.

you're hijacking another thread that has nothing todo with your vehicle. start a thread of your own (with details about how you did your bodylift)
