What is a Body Lift?
A body lift kit is a 1, 2, or 3 inch (2.54, 5.08, or 7.62 cm) lift kit that only lifts the body from the frame. This inexpensive kit consists of blocks or spacers. Body lifts
do not increase ground clearance; however, it will normally allow for
slightly taller tires because it will increase the height of the wheel
wells. Depending on the model of vehicle and the height of the body lift kit, you may need to invest in additional parts to raise the bumpers,
extend the gearshift through the floorboard of the vehicle and making
other modifications to accommodate the body lift. Although a body lift
causes a vehicle to sit higher, it does not alter or improve
suspension, or increase travel.
