Looking for all the advice info I can get on a 1" body lift.

Recomended brands?

Has anyone installed them? How hard is it? How long does it take?

I installed my Skyjacker BB, could I do a 1" body lift?


Anything you can throw at me is appreciated. Thanks

A 1" BL is typically a pretty simple affair...essentially, you are merely inserting spacers at the body mount points..and, to do that, you also loosen the stuff that runs fron the frame mounted parts, to the body mounts parts, so that they can have enough slack to move...and then re-tighten the stuff.



Most people tell me its an hour or three (I have not done a JK yet, but so far, I have not heard that its harder than any other jeep or truck.

its not hard, i had put one on my 94 wrangler when i was taking shop class, it took us 6 days cause everything was rusted to high hell but, with a new one few hours, im thinkin about getting one myself, is daystar any good anyone know?

I typically avoid body lifts because they normally look awful... especially on trucks How are they looking on the jk unlimited?

My BL took an hr and a half, woulda took an hour if I woulda had an 18mm socket( tool gremlens musta got it) Good floor jack, several blocks of wood( 4x4's 2x4's a foot or two long) bench vise, and a descent set of tools= easy install. If you can do a BB you definately can do a Bodylift

Thanks for all the input. I get scared that it will look stupid, especially with only 32" tires.

mkjeep that looks really good I cant even tell it has a body lift! Is there anything that you don't like about it? I wasnt even going to consider one but that looks really good matched up with the BB
