wheel366 Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 (edited) Have any of you guys had problems with the pathy body lifts? My mechanic was telling me a while ago that body lifts mess up the body and can make the middle of the body sag and you could develop problems with the doors closing etc.... Any ideas? Also, isn't there a problem with the thorley headers and a body lift? I hear that Wednesday is the new date as to when I'll be getting my truck back. He told my father yesterday that he is moving to CA in 2 weeks and plans on finishing up with all the cars he has by Weds. Will this be another deadline that comes and goes????

GrimGreg Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 The body lifts for our trucks are good, none of the issues your mechanic brought up happen on our trucks. The body is still supported from all of the same points, just 2"-3" higher off of the frame . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derogate Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 what about the thorely's i know you need a mod to the Y pipe if you have a susp. lift. what about BL's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimGreg Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 BL would only help since it would raise the body allowing for more space to fit things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 Exactly. Rusty bolts and dirt are your main problem, usually. I'd definitely try to get under there and pressure-wash at least the body mount points under the framerail and all. Then P'Blaster(or WD40) the crap out of those bolts before you try and get 'em off.

He didn't seem to think that I would need to modify anything to put the headers on with the susp lift I have. I guess we'll see when he actually goes to do it.

GrimGreg Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 I think the main mod that is needed is to the crossover pipe, but that is for trucks with AT trannys only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheel366 Posted June 28, 2005 Author Share Posted June 28, 2005 OK another question. Is AC the only place to get body lifts for a 95 now? I searched a little but didn't find anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 OK another question. Is AC the only place to get body lifts for a 95 now? I searched a little but didn't find anything. Another place that offers them is Performance Accessories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimGreg Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 The AC one is a Performance Accesories lift with upgraded bolts (FYI). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
