I have been very anti body lift for a while. I have done a lot of research though and most of my fears were unfounded. The thing with a body lift is you can't go over 3". I doubt that would make much difference to you but that is the only major negative. I also believe over time......a long time it can affect the body panels fitment due to extra stress on the body from sitting on blocks.

To bad I can't get one I have a ranchhand grill guard and I don't know how to fab brackets to make it fit with a BL and I gotta have my grill guard.

 

from what I have seen the frames on fords don't seem to show a lot with a body lift like chevy's do my step brothers z71 you could see the frame

 

You see alot of the frame, but its what you like. When I lifted my truck I wanted a true lift. So I went with the FAbtech. I like it and all but sometimes I wished I would of gone performance wise with my truck.
