Body lift ??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am going to do a 4" suspension lift and also move the fuel tank to the rear. I have read that the filler neck is rather tight with the body at the stock mounts. I have also read that body lifts are not ideal in that they cause wear in the floor sheetmetal areas.
What is the real scoop and what is the right way to do this? Also I want the least amount of lift needed. 1" or 2" be enough, too much?
I am running 33's so the extra clearance will be nice too.
But be kind. I am old and jumping up too high could be bad.
Learn me something.
