Hey folks, im thinking off getting a 3" PA body lift on top of my 2" level. the question is : are there any issues or concerns with airbag sensors deploying at different impact than stock due relocation? if they are still located in the bumpers that is... and could this create an insurance issue if in an accident, like they wont cover me?
Thanks

I bought a 3" PA body lift...I sent it back. I didn't like it at all. I made me own 1" kit. Heres my truck with a 2" level and 1" body lift all over. Still not finished.

I run 305/55R20s and got a 1" block in the rear.

looks good man, but like I said, i'm wondering about the airbag issue if I go up off the frame with the bumpers changing the location of the airbag sensors. I'd like a 5" susp but cant afford it. the 3"PA will put me up a good bit on top of the 2" level and 1"rear block.

I sell my kits for $105 shipped and no one will ever know you have body lift.

Always wonderd what my truck would have looked like with those rims! Nice Setup man!

Don't see why I wouldn't work. but I wouldn't buy a 3" body lift. either get a 4 in suspchepn lift and then put a 1" body lift on it. 3" like to flex and loosen up...if your find with a 6.75" bolt holding your cab up go for it...Me personal, long bolts don't hold crap tight with flex.

I've always used red LocTite on them and never had any get loose.
