If money is not a problem do the 6" Superlift. Your tow hooks, your hitch all moves up with the truck on a SL so none of that is an issue. But even if you did want to do the body lift there is an easy fix for moving the tow hooks and the rear hitchand keeping everything strong. Read different thread...

Welcome apcrews10 :thumb: Why is it you don't want a 5-6 inch suspension llift and you don't like a Body Lift? If the suspension lift is a money issue then your best option is a body lift with a 1" T bar crank and a 1" shackle. Stay away from the 2" superlift. In my opinion your best bet is to go wi...

Ben,

Your truck looks great, no matter what some other people might say, if you like it, that's what counts. Your truck is a one of a kind. In fact I am thinking about stealing some of your mod's

Pauleo,

If you have any doubts, flash it back to stock programming after a month of running the HPPIII. Drive it for a week with the stock programming.
