A body lift moves the body only above the frame. The frame is NOT raised, and anything attached to the frame is not raised. This can only be done on a vehicle that has "body on frame" construction, such as the 4Runner. A vehicle with a unibody construction, like most cars, cannot have this done because there is no separate frame.

Thx for clarification.

I’ve got a 2017 TRDP, factory tires are on the back half of their life. When replaced, I want to do a bigger tire and a lift. Looking for personal experiences and opinions.
