because in reality you aren't accomplishing anything by lifting it that high, when you lift a truck, you usually don't go any higher than a few inches, all you are doing is trying to gain some clearance, after that you are just asking to roll. Not even to mention how bad it is on all your suspension, constantly changing wheel bearings and ball joints, and completely losing the nice smooth ride of the vehicle. Don't even get me started on body lifts, they are absolutely pointless and look terrible, and are dangerous. dont get me wrong i have had lifted trucks, but have learned to do it the right way, with a small spindle in the front to give it a nice stance and some clearance and that's it. Lifting a truck more than a few inches is ugly and pointless.

More lift = larger tires which equals more clearance. You can lift a truck 20', if you run small tires you are getting no where. The key is to fit the largest tire on the least amount of lift while not to hinder the suspension articulation.

A body lift doesn't effect the ride quality since the suspension stays untouched so it is a decent option for a budget lift. Also the pointless part of them is wrong also, they allow for a larger tire therefore an increase in ground clearance.

Could you also elaborate as to why a lift is bad for the suspension please?

I am going out on a limb to say your last truck was 2wd? Right? I say this because you mentioned a lift spindle. So you lifted a 2wd and added larger tires and yet lifted trucks are ugly and dumb and pointless? Your post is like a dog chasing it's tail.

To sum this up, we all have our preferences and opinions. Please keep the bashing to yourself.
