On what? I'm not fan of body lifts, but understand the a 1" is often a logical thing to do (belly up, a little more clearance, etc). I also understand they have a couple of advantages, but I just don't like the way they look.

For that reason only I voted no. That said, TJ's, YJ's, and CJ's would all clear 32's with a 2.5" lift and a 1" body lift. Maybe consider the daystar BL that is an extended 1" body mount bushing???

RE: Hey Mingez, Is this true?

Gotta agree with TC here....don't like body lifts. Some vehicles can get by with it, but not Jeeps.....my son's GMC PU has about 6" of body lift, and I think it looks like crap...maybe because he's only running 31's or 32's on it, or maybe because it's a GMC, I dunno. But definitely don't go more than 1" BL on a Jeep if you do any at all.

RE: Ever see these pictures

I love body lifts as a way to gain a little more clearance. Some people go way too far with them, but there is nothing wrong with a moderate BL to help you run some bigger meats.

What kind of Jeep? That is alot of lift just to clear 32s
