and as far as a bodylift giving it a "rough" ride, really ???? Ive had two rigs with a bodylift, and did not, notice either being a "rougher" ride

therefore, the longer the bolt, the bigger potential R and bigger potential for torque shearing the bolt
hence the reason for higher shear bolts

Good info on the tube bumper.

My dad's 89 Pickup has been body lifted since brand new, 3". Not a single problem because it was done right and paired with the suspension necessary to handle larger tires.

Body lifts don't kill people, improper installs do.
