WHere are you guys getting these body lifts? Im new and want a 2-3" one badly. Also, probably will put spacers in the front. Any specific brands, recommendations, or ideas? btw i have and 05 XL 2wd

 

Performance Accessories is the manufacturer of the body lift. They are available just about everywhere like 4Wheel Parts, Summit Racing, etc. By the way, which engine do you have? I don't know what is so different on the new F-150's but PA says the body lift is only for trucks with the 5.4. I hear they are working on one for the 4.6 trucks.

 

ive got the 4.2 V6. I dont see why the engine size would make a difference...weird

 

I agree.

 

is 3" the biggest they go??

 

Yes, 3 inches is the limit on body lifts.

 

is there any dissadvantages with a body lift cuz they are way cheaper than a full suspension lift...and will a 3" lift fit 35s??

 

Because i have an XL, i do not have the thin black fender trim like the other f150s. Does anyone know where i can get those...no luck on ebay yet. After I lift it I think it will look silly without em

 

The hitch will look akward, the tow hooks will be the same, especially if you have a bull bar. There will be a space between the frame the rear fender wells.

 

get some aftermarket fenderflares if you lift it it will look 10 times better than thoes cheap plastic little things

 

don't forget the gap guards.

 

The biggest disadvantage to a body lift is you are limited to 3 inches of lift. The advantages are the ride will not be affected, they are cheaper than a suspension lift and your warranty will not be affected. As mentioned, you need to get a set of PA's Gap Guards to cover up the 3 inch gap in the wheelwells. You can usually get creative to clean up the looks of a body lift in relation to the tow hooks, tail pipe, etc.
