Body Lift
 

Hello again, I am planning on lifting my 72 about 4". But I found a body lift alot cheaper than buying a brand new skyjacker or roughcountry. Which are good lift kits dont get me wrong just dont have that kind of money. Would I have to change or alter anything if I install just a 3" body lift.

I would never run a 3" body lift. The larger the gap between the frame and the body, the more stress on the mounts. I have a 1" lift that gives that little extra tire clearane and helps clear exhaust, PS hoses and things like that.

here is a link to some general instructions...

What I used was a rear flip kit to gain 4" rear lift with stock rear springs....

I would never run a body lift at all , you can find a used lift kit or save your money and wait to put a correct lift on your truck. you will be happier in the end . Just my 02 cents Jim
