Those of you with body lifts. Are you happy the results?
Id be interested in knowing if its worth it. Ive seen a few people with 1/2 inch body lift. also a few with 1 inch. Other than clearing bigger tires is there any benefit?
Aftermarket bumpers usually have some adjustability but a small BL can space it just enough from the body to allow for some frame flex when you are offroading. The same is true for bolt on sliders if you want more space for them to flex or for asthetics. Suspension lifts don't give you any extra wheel well to tire clearance when you are using up all of your travel on trails. Only trimming/hammering or BLs do this.

I went with a 1.25 inch body lift, and it was more for appearance than anything. I was happily running a lift for years and decided I wanted a little more height. So I went with the 1.25 and not only has it helped with rubbing issues, it looks great.
My opinion is that if you can do the lift yourself or with the help of a friend its well worth the money. If you have to pay a shop I would only do it if you are planning to run bigger tires and don't have a choice.
