That 0"-1" only applies to lifting springs or spring spacers . . . Suspension has nothing to do with body lift

You can put a body lift on with no issues. A body lift just uses spacers to lift the body of the truck off the frame of the truck.

Get some front gap guards when you get the body lift though!

hmmm...mine are the 275 65 20 duratracs which are 34.2 i belive
i wonder if they will look too small
Well I was trying to decide between the 35's and the size you bought. Eventually I decided on the 35's, but I don't know how much of a difference there would be. My tires are only 1" taller than yours

The big difference between the 275/60 R20 and your 35s is the width. The 275 is about 10 in wide and your average 35 is 12 in wide.

Yes I know. We were talking about how the 34" would look height wise compared to a 35 on a truck.
