Body Lift???
 
This may be a dumb question but im having trouble finding one for my truck are there any out there or is it even possible???

Body lifts are for that nice toyota down the street, or the Nissan Hard body... Not for a 8000# truck.

But to answer your question, they do not make a body lift for a Diesel Superduty. I have seen them for the gasers, but you will have to fab up some new IC pipes, coolant hoses, AC hoses and intake tube...

Body lifts...:scare2:

yea i am tryin to get one tsavemy trucks body while out in the mud that the last thing i needis to scrape rocks on a door or quarter panel

You bet, but it would also be better to keep your frame and body in close contact... I'll have to dig up the pictures of a body lifted Duramax in a wreck... Frame was fine, body went for a ride and killed the occupants...

that sucks but i would sure like to see it looks like thats a big no no on my end lol

Its not worth the risk...

You could do a mini spring pack, or a shackle lift and gain an inch or so...

I've heard from numerous Off Road shops that body lifts and diesel trucks aren't a good combo. The guru's who did my '96 had a sign posted stating they absolutely would not do it.

Why wouldn't they do it on the 96? You would have been able to fit a 4" downpipe!
