Post warranty?

I am planning on installing a 3" body lift on my 99' supercab with the 5.4L. Does anybody know if this voids or effects my warranty in any way? Thanks

Really, it doesn't void the warranty at all? I would think that it would void the suspension warranty. That's good news.

It depends on your dealer. The body lift itself will not, but running xtra large tires that are not recommended by Ford can void the warranty. They can claim added stress to the motor and drivetrain.
Like hillrod said, hid dealer has no problems with his, but my dealer was a complete SOB about it, so just check with your dealer to be sure. Good Luck

I have not lifted my truck, in fact I went the other direction. But I have gone to my dealer and they told me that anything that changes the operating parameters of the suspension(engine, trans, or any other system of the veichel) will void the warranty on that component(or components).
