Since I just put in the Body Lift (within the last week), I was kinda wondering how well the lifts are holding up for ya? If you have had any problems, or not a single problem I would love to know.

Thanks much,

That is great, how often have you had to retorque, or adjust the bolts and lift blocks?

 

Never had to re-torque the bolts. I try to check them every once in awhile whenever I think about it, but thats recommended anyway.

 

2 years with a PA 3inch never had any problems. Took it in once after 75 miles to get checked out.

 

my body lift has been on for about 3 and a half years and i have had zero problems. i checked the bolts last weekend for the first time since i installed the lift and they were just as tight as the day i put them in.

 

Donate54: What kinda Body lift do you have?

 

After almost a year and more than 20k miles everything is OK. Mine is a Performance Accesories lift.

I'll purchase the kit, give you a 50 dollar tip, and try to furnish the beer if someone will put one on mine for me. 10-16 hrs is a long install.

too bad you live so far from me

 

Well, I now have 1000 miles on my lift. I checked the bolts last night and they were all tight. I am in the process of constructing a brushgaurd and I am thinking of making custom brackets to tie the bumper/brushguard/frame all together and get the whole assembly Line-X coated to match my truck.

All in all, I am more than happy with the lift.

Thanks for all the reply's!
