Hey guys, I've decided to do the 1" body lift. I figure it'd be a good idea to pull out those old stock body pucks and replace them with a small body lift. I want to avoid any major complications, so I'm only going for 1".

My questions is, what company offers the most complete kit for the price? Should I go for one that relocates the entire radiator? Any opinions that you guys have on the best kit to go for. Skyjacker, Daystar, Performance Accessories?

I'm not going to be doing the new motor mounts, so keep that in mind. Also, will I have any problems or feel any change in my handling? I have a 2" spacer lift right now with no transfercase drop (not feeling any driveline vibes). Would it be advisable to install a transfer case drop after I install the 1" body lift?

-Rob

Best Body Lift?

performance acc. my buddy put their 2" bl on his yota and everything went smooth, and its cheaper then most others, as far as your tcase drop goes you dont need one...you are only raising the body off the frame, you prolly wont even need to extended your shifters. If your looking for best ride id go w/ the daystar polyurethane 1" body lift

Phatyaspen recommended a very good kit, also take a look at the MORE 1' lift as well, and JKS makes a 1.25" body lift that some like in the event they go to a flat skid that requires the extra .25 inch.

It looks like I'll be going with Daystar. I'd rather replace the entire stock rubber mounts. I'm looking at it now for $130 with free shipping. Seem's like the cheapest I've seen.

Thanks guys!
