Looking for some advice
I purchased a zone 1.25 body lift months ago but not sure if I want to install it or not


So for running a 6inch rough country with 37's

Question are what are the down sides of a small body lift
Do u get noises ?
My ram is a 2009 am I going to problems getting all the body bolts loose ?
Other then the exhaust what else will I have to adjust?

Thanks Steve

I agree, looks good as is.

I believe you only have to adjust the exhaust with the 3" body lift.

From experience, I had to turn up my tail pipes a bit. Mine are up pretty far to clear my bed step, though. If you look at my setup, I have a 6" suspension and a 1.5" body lift combinded with 37x13.50 tires. Just wanted to add something to the 6". I can tell you that it can be a bit of a PITA to install. I HIGHLY recommend two people to do it to help hold the bumpers and body.

I did my 2014 by myself in a few hours. It's not hard. I may be pretty handy with a wrench though, so take it for what it's worth. The hardest part was making sure I read the directions right. My lift kit and body lift were the first of its kind for me.

I don't see the need for the body lift, truck looks fine the ways it sits. I would sell the body lift if were me.
