Im deciding to put a 3inch body lift on my 97 2wd f150 what are the things i should look out for.

 

Start putting something on the bed bolts right now everyday so they are loosened up when you start. Otherwise they can be a major pain in the ***...

Good luck

 

body mount bushings. if they are press fitted like on the newer f150's, you may need a press to get them out.

 

Start soaking all of the body mounting bolts now. You need a large pair of channel locks or a pipe wrench and a friend to hold the round nuts/bushings used to mount the cab. Also, you need a saw to trim a couple of inches off the front of the frame so you bumper/valance will mount correctly. You can use a hacksaw, but a sawsall works better.

 

Is there any difference puttin a body lift on after a suspension lift as opposed to putting a body lift on with no suspension lift?

 

Yeah, you'll need a lot more 2x4s.

 

when putting on the body lift what will the exhaust look like becuase the body is now moved up higher .

 

it will look a little akward. but go to a muffler shop and have them move it up.

 

Depends on how your hangers are made, I got lucky and could adjust mine..looks to be stock..heres a pic..
